Individual tree crown delineation techniques for vegetation management in power line corridor
Li, Zhengrong, Hayward, Ross F., Zhang, Jinglan, & Liu, Yuee (2008) Individual tree crown delineation techniques for vegetation management in power line corridor. In Proceedings of The 10th International Conference on Digital Image Computing : Techniques and Applications, IEEE, Canberra, Australia.
Remotely sensed, high spatial resolution images have great potential in assisting vegetation management in power line corridor. With the wide use of object-based approaches in remote sensing image analysis, individual tree crown delineation becomes a key research focus to improve the accuracy of plant information extraction. Although many algorithms have been investigated for individual tree crown delineation, no one algorithm seems suitable for all situations. As such, this paper investigates the applicability of several tree crown delineation techniques for complex environments in power line corridors. The advantages and limitations of these algorithms and prospective improvements are discussed. Initial experiment results on tree crown delineation employing JSEG are presented and compared with Mats Erikson's region-growing method.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from and citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from theindexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
