TY - T1 - Reconstructing forest canopy from the 3D triangulations of airborne laser scanning point data for the visualization and planning of forested landscapes SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/214424 T3 - A1 - Vauhkonen, Jari; Ruotsalainen, Roope A2 - PB - Y1 - 2017 LA - eng AB - Key message We present a data-driven technique to visualize forest landscapes and simulate their future development according to alternative management scenarios. Gentle harvesting intensities were preferred for maintaining scenic values in a test of eliciting public's preferences based on the simulated landscapes. Context Visualizations of future forest landscapes according to alternative management scenarios are useful for eliciting stakeholders' preferences on the alternatives. However, conve...
