A Review of General Methods for Quantifying and Estimating Urban Trees and Biomass
2022
Overview
Understanding the biomass, characteristics, and carbon sequestration of urban forests is crucial for maintaining and improving the quality of life and ensuring sustainable urban planning. Approaches to urban forest management have been incorporated into interdisciplinary, multifunctional, and technical efforts. In this review, we evaluate recent developments in urban forest research methods, compare the accuracy and efficiency of different methods, and identify emerging themes in urban forest assessment. This review focuses on urban forest biomass estimation and individual tree feature detection, showing that the rapid development of remote sensing technology and applications in recent years has greatly benefited the study of forest dynamics. Included in the review are light detection and ranging-based techniques for estimating urban forest biomass, deep learning algorithms that can extract tree crowns and identify tree species, methods for measuring large canopies using unmanned aerial vehicles to estimate forest structure, and approaches for capturing street tree information using street view images. Conventional methods based on field measurements are highly beneficial for accurately recording species-specific characteristics. There is an urgent need to combine multi-scale and spatiotemporal methods to improve urban forest detection at different scales.
