International Journal of Wildland Fire, 2007, n. 16
A fuel-type map of a predominantly shub-land area in central Portugal was generated for a fire research experimental site, by combining airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR), and simultaneous color infrared ortho imaging. Since the vegetation canopy and the ground are too close together to be easily discerned by LiDAR pulses, standard of processing LiDAR data did not provide an accurate estimate of shrub height
