Drones for forestry

A few years ago, the entire forestry industry was pointing to a potential revolution through the use of drones. The use of drones has brought a lot to the forestry industry (silviculture) and to the organizations in charge of the maintenance of large areas. Using the LiDAR sensor on drone we obtain a digital surface model (DSM) and digital terrain model (DTM) to perform forest mapping.
