Assessing plant area index and 3D plant area distribution in wheat canopies from a terrestrial LiDAR system for high-throughput plant phenotyping

This study investigates a new methodology to estimate plant area index ( PAI ) and its spatial distribution from 3D point clouds acquired by a system of 3 LiDARs (2 nadir-viewing and one at 45°) mounted on the Phenomobile Unmanned Ground Vehicle designed for high-throughput pheno...
