However, there is limited understanding on how a variety of forest structural changes can be quantified using TLS in boreal forest conditions. In this study, we assessed the accuracy and feasibility of TLS inquantifying changes in the structure of boreal forests. We collected TLS data and field reference from 37 sa...
