Description

PROTOLIDAR package contains functions for analyze the LIDAR scan of plants (grapevine) and make with the outputs 3D maps in GRASS-GIS.

Details

Package: PROTOLIDAR

This package help to analyze the LIDAR scan and extract the grapevine plant for see the plant in 3D GRASS GIS maps.

The package contains the following dataset and functions:

LIDAR_data is the dataset of the LIDAR scan. Represent the grapevine plant (BBCH 65).

Extract_plant_grapevine_function: which cuts the excess data.

Extract_plant_3D_function: helps to position the axis in the center of the plant.

Height_canopy_function: to measure the height of canopy from the LIDAR scan.

Width_canopy_function:to measure the width of canopy from the LIDAR scan.

Number_LIDAR_points_function: to calculate the number of points into the canopy.

LAI_function: to calculate the leaf area index.

LWA_lidar_function:to calculate the leaf wall area.

TRV_lidar_function: to calculate tree row volume in m^3*ha^-1.

Rotate_function: to rotate plants to match with the planting line.

Replicate_plants_function: to replicate plants.

## Should be DIRECTLY executable !! 
## For example:
   data (LIDAR_data)
   x <- LIDAR_data [,1]
   y <- LIDAR_data [,2]
   z <- LIDAR_data [,3]
   zdistance <- 190 # total LIDAR scan distance measured in cm.
   miny <- 0 # minimum height of the plant measured in cm.
   maxy <- 2000 # maximum height of the plant measured in cm.
   minx <- 450 # minimum width from where LIDAR starts to measure (cm).
   maxx <- 1470# maximum width from where LIDAR starts to measure (cm).
   minz <- 0 # the beginning of the LIDAR scan measured in cm.
   maxz <- 186 # the end of the LIDAR scan measured in cm (length of interest).
  
## The function is currently defined as

      x_cm <- 0
