Identifying individual tree canopy outlines or locations in imagery using visual interpretation or computer-vision methods.

At a glance

Identifying individual tree canopy outlines or locations in imagery using visual interpretation or computer-vision methods.

Why it matters

Tree-level observations can support plantation inventory and canopy-change assessment.

An operating example

Review detected crowns within a named plantation boundary to support inventory checks.

Illustrative application, not a live customer result or a guarantee of product availability.

What it does and does not tell you

Overlapping crowns, shadows and image resolution affect detection. Crown counts do not always equal stem counts.
