Fig. 1From: Assessing tree dendrometrics in young regenerating plantations using terrestrial laser scanningPlot layout and standardized set-up of nine scan positions to acquire terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) data. The north sphere allowed for orientation to the cardinal directions. The set-up scheme of the spheres within the plot had no fixed pattern, but was adjusted depending on vegetation density and topography. The horizontal distance between two planting positions is 1.29 m, resulting in a horizontal plot size of 41.6 m2 Back to article page
