Estimating Canopy Fuel Attributes from Low-Density LiDAR

Simulations of wildland fire risk are EXTENSIONS dependent on the accuracy and relevance of spatial data inputs describing drivers of wildland fire, including canopy fuels.Spatial data are freely available at national and regional levels.However, the spatial resolution and accuracy of these types of products often are insufficient for modeling loca
