Urban Forestry
The Urban Forestry module supports forestry point cloud preprocessing, individual-tree segmentation, tree parameter calculation and editing, and ecological landscape analysis. Processing results can be compiled into a forestry report, which presents three-view images, tree height, crown diameter, other attribute values, and custom fields for each tree, together with overall statistics such as project point clouds, tree counts, and reference trees. The module provides Basic and Pro modes for users with different levels of workflow familiarity and processing requirements.
Mode Selection
| Item | Basic | Pro |
|---|---|---|
| Intended Users | First-time users or users who want to complete a standard workflow quickly | Users familiar with forestry processing who require detailed control |
| Operation | Select the required steps and click Run to process them in order | Start each function independently and combine processing steps as needed |
| Parameters | Common parameters are adapted by default and generally require no adjustment | Parameters for each step can be adjusted independently for different data |
| Main Features | Simple operation and a clear workflow for obtaining results quickly | Flexible control for standalone processing, parameter optimization, and troubleshooting |
Recommendation: Use Basic when you are unfamiliar with the processing steps. Use Pro when you need to skip, repeat, or tune an individual step.
Basic
Basic mode connects common processing steps in the Urban Forestry workflow. Select the required steps using the checkboxes, then click Run to process them together. Parameters for common operations have been adapted so that good results can usually be obtained without understanding every function parameter.
See Basic for details.
Pro
Pro mode organizes tools by function type, and each step can be run independently. The Preprocessing group includes Subsampling, SOR Filter, Classify by Deep Learning, and Normalize by Ground Points. After preprocessing, users can perform segmentation, tree parameter calculation, seed editing, tree editing, report export, and result analysis.
See Pro for the detailed tool groups and recommended workflow.
