Evaluation of GOFP over four forest plots using RAMI and UAV measurements

Comparison and validation of canopy reflectance (CR) models are two important steps to ensure their reliability. Pure forest plantations are an ideal type of forest for validating CR models because of their simple background and the low variance in the crown structures which are usually assumed to be identical in most CR models. A Geometric Optical Model for Forest Plantations (GOFP) was compared using dataset in two radiation transfer model …
