Description

Ground-based laser point cloud single-tree crown volume extraction method based on spherical coordinate integral
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of forestry engineering, and particularly relates to a method for extracting the volume of a single-tree crown of a foundation laser point cloud based on spherical coordinate integration.
Background
The real-time and accurate extraction of forest structural parameters is the key to understanding of land carbon reserves and ecological system health diagnosis, wherein the volume of a crown expresses the size of the geometrical volume of a space occupied by a forest crown layer, the value of the volume can comprehensively reflect the competition degree among tree groups and the photosynthesis intensity of the trees, and the forest structural parameters are important factors for ground surface ecological monitoring research such as forest three-dimensional form simulation, forest resource investigation, ground surface biomass estimation and the like. The traditional method for measuring the volume of the single tree crown mainly adopts measuring tools such as a steel tape and a height measuring instrument, the crown width and the crown height are obtained manually, the volume of the tree crown is calculated according to an empirical model of a specific tree species, but the method is extensive in technology, the measurement precision is limited by human factors and the form of the tree crown layer, and the requirements on accuracy and efficiency of forest parameter extraction cannot be met. The ground-based laser radar measurement technology (Li light Detect i ng And ranging, liDAR) adopts a non-contact laser measurement mode to quickly acquire forest three-dimensional space structure information-point cloud data with high precision And high density, has the advantages of high scanning speed And high automation degree, and opens up a new technical means for forest crown volume extraction, so that the development of laser point cloud data-based single tree crown volume extraction research has important theoretical significance And engineering reference value.
According to the difference of the space scale of the minimum differential unit, the laser point cloud single-wood crown extraction method can be divided into three types: (1) a crown volume extraction method based on point cloud boundary detection. The volume extraction method based on point cloud boundary detection is characterized in that a forest canopy is regarded as an irregular geometric body with continuous space boundaries, three-dimensional space boundary points are detected, a triangular net with irregular space on the surface of a tree crown is constructed, and the space volume of the closed triangular net is directly calculated to obtain the volume of the tree crown. According to the method, crown point cloud contour boundary points are identified and a closed space triangular network or convex hull set is formed, the space range of a crown is expressed more completely, the difference of the space morphological distribution of different crown varieties can be considered better, however, the complexity of the crown volume extraction process is increased due to the detection of the crown contour boundary point cloud and the reconstruction of the space triangular network, the large-scale popularization and use are not facilitated, and meanwhile, the rationality of the crown boundary triangular network is to be subjected to negligence due to the factors such as point cloud shortage and uneven density; (2) a crown volume extraction method based on point cloud layering. The method comprises the steps of uniformly dividing laser point cloud into a plurality of layers along the height of a canopy based on the point cloud layering, regarding each layer as a space cylinder with an irregular bottom surface, detecting the boundary of the bottom surface by adopting an alpha-shape algorithm, calculating the area of the boundary, and accumulating the volumes of the layers to obtain the volume of the canopy. According to the method, the local crown form is equivalent to a regular frustum pyramid model, so that the difficulty of crown volume extraction is reduced, but the automation degree of crown volume extraction is reduced due to the selection of the hierarchical segmentation scale of the point cloud. Some scholars try to start with the aspects of setting the optimal segmentation scale, improving the detection of layered ground boundary points of the alpha-shape algorithm and the like, and the self-adaption degree and the precision of the extraction of the laser point cloud crown are improved to a certain extent; (3) a crown volume extraction method based on point cloud voxel segmentation. The method is characterized in that a crown volume extraction method based on point cloud voxel segmentation uniformly segments crown laser point clouds into space voxel units with a plurality of sizes mainly according to spatial form distribution of a crown layer, the effectiveness of the space voxel units is detected through the number of points in the voxel units, and the crown volume is indirectly extracted through effective voxel integration. In conclusion, the existing single-tree crown volume extraction method based on laser point cloud data has the defects of low precision, low universality and the like.
Therefore, the invention aims to project tree crown points from a three-dimensional point cloud space to a three-dimensional spherical coordinate space by using ground laser point cloud data of single trees, and realize high-precision extraction of the volume of the single tree crown by using a spherical coordinate integration method.

and (4) in a three-dimensional spherical coordinate space, taking the infinitesimal body model as an integral function, and taking the range of a horizontal angle and a vertical angle as an integral interval, and obtaining a monomer tree volume estimation result by adopting an integral method.
Further, the laser point cloud data of the single tree foundation is obtained in the step (1), and the complete single tree crown laser point cloud is obtained in a multi-view survey station scanning mode, so that the cloud loss phenomenon of the single tree crown points caused by factors such as shielding and sensor performance is compensated, and the integrity of the point cloud data is improved.

The concrete implementation mode is as follows,
21 Dividing the laser point cloud height values of the single tree crown into intervals, counting the number of the laser point clouds in each interval, and drawing an elevation-point curve graph;

Manually and visually judging the inflection point of the curve and the corresponding elevation value according to the elevation-point curve graph, wherein the elevation value corresponding to the inflection point is the optimal segmentation threshold value for crown point cloud extraction;
23 The points with the single tree point cloud elevation value larger than or equal to the optimal threshold value are marked as tree crown points, and the points with the single tree point cloud elevation value smaller than the optimal threshold value are marked as tree trunk points, so that the rapid and fine extraction of the single tree crown of the laser point cloud is realized.

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and experimental examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and do not limit the invention.

The trunk point discrimination principle is as follows: p is a radical of i ={(x i ,y i ,z i )|z i <H threshold } (2)
Step (3), projecting tree crown points from a three-dimensional point cloud space to a three-dimensional sphere coordinate space, and determining an integral infinitesimal body calculation model. Defining a three-dimensional spherical coordinate system: taking the center of gravity of the crown point as an origin O of a three-dimensional space spherical coordinate system, taking the spatial Euclidean distance between the crown point P and a connecting line of the origin as a spherical radius R, taking the horizontal plane projection of an OP connecting line and the positive included angle of an X axis as a horizontal angle theta, and specifying clockwise as positive, then theta belongs to [0,2 pi ], []The projection of the OP connecting line on the vertical plane and the positive included angle of the Z axis are vertical angles

Because of the number of crown points and the radius R of the tree in the body of different rectangular pyramid micro-elements jl The volume of the crown is a discontinuous variable, so that the volume of the crown is calculated by using a sum formula of the discrete variables, as shown in formula (7).
Figure BDA0004026119270000102
Angular resolution λ 12 The method is used for inputting parameters for extracting the volume of the laser point cloud tree crown, if the value is selected to be too large, the extraction result of the volume of the tree crown is rough, and if the value is selected to be too small, the extraction efficiency of the volume of the single tree is low. And integrating the factors of precision and efficiency, wherein the angular resolution of the horizontal angle and the vertical angle is equal and is 3-5 times of the average distance of the point cloud.
In order to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the ground-based laser point cloud single-tree crown volume extraction method based on the spherical coordinate integral, the method is verified by using a test example.
1. Test data. The test object is 6 different tree species, crown form monomer trees of osmanthus fragrans, cedar, cinnamomum camphora, yunnan magnolia, ginkgo and oriental cherry in the school zone of encyclopedia of Yunnan Master university, and the laser point cloud acquisition equipment is a lycra P40 foundation laser radar system, main parameters: the distance measurement precision is 1.2mm +10ppm; the angle measurement precision is 8'; the point position precision is 3mm @50m; the scan rate is 100 ten thousand points/second; the horizontal and vertical field angles are 360 ° and 270 °, respectively. The data acquisition adopts a multi-station scanning scheme, three scanning measuring stations are uniformly distributed around a research object as a center, a plane target is arranged in a common visual area of the three measuring stations, single-wood laser point cloud obtained by utilizing preprocessing function modules of Decaiska business software Cyc one multi-station point cloud data registration, denoising, cutting and the like is used as final experimental data, and the maximum error of the registration of the laser point cloud of two adjacent stations is 0.09m.

2. And (5) result and analysis. Because the outline of the single-tree crown is an irregular space body, the whole space form of the single-tree crown cannot be described finely by a mathematical model, and therefore the theoretical value of the volume of the crown cannot be determined directly. Weekun et al (tree crown volume calculation method [ J ] based on three-dimensional laser scanning point cloud, 2013,44 (07): 235-240) propose a laser point cloud tree crown volume extraction method based on voxel segmentation, analyze effectiveness and reliability of an algorithm by adopting a plurality of groups of experimental data, discuss influence of voxel size selection on tree crown volume extraction precision and efficiency, and show that the smaller the voxel is, the higher the tree crown extraction precision is, and become a standard reference for evaluating the tree crown volume extraction performance of the laser point cloud data. The method is based on the laser point cloud crown volume extraction voxel segmentation method, and the estimation result is theoretical reference of the crown volume when the voxel size is 0.05 m. And (3) selecting an absolute error and a relative error as the evaluation indexes of the crown volume extraction precision as shown in a formula (8), wherein the formula represents the extracted value of the crown volume of the laser point cloud and represents a theoretical reference value of the crown volume, the absolute error describes the deviation of the crown extraction result and the theoretical value, and the relative error% describes the deviation proportion of the crown extraction result and the theoretical value.

The invention discloses a method for estimating and researching crown volume based on three-dimensional laser point cloud data by using a spherical coordinate integration method and a method 1 (Liufang, von Zhongke, yanglite, and the like) [ J]Agro-mechanical journal, 2016,47 (03): 328-334), method 2 (linson, tianina, birixin, etc.. Single tree crown volume accurate calculation of three-dimensional laser scan data [ J]The volume extraction results of the crown of point cloud data obtained by the method of 2020,45 (08): 115-122) are compared, and the two existing methods respectively representAnd (3) performing point cloud boundary detection by using a crown volume extraction method and performing point cloud layering by using a crown volume extraction method. Table 2 shows the extracted values of the volume of the laser point cloud crown and the precision statistics based on the experimental data of different methods. Comparing different laser point cloud experimental data, when the spatial form of the crown is in a sphere-like shape or a triangular pyramid shape and the outline is more regular, such as sweet osmanthus flower, cedar and cinnamomum camphora experimental data, the crown volume extraction by different methods shows better effect, the crown volume extraction precision index of the experimental data is kept in a certain range, and the maximum value of the absolute error of the crown volume extraction is 1.02m 3 The maximum value of the relative error is 7.32%, as shown in bold in table 2; when the outline of the crown is irregular, such as Yunnan magnolia and ginkgo and other test data, the fluctuation of the volume extraction precision index of the crown of the test data is large, the performance of the extraction result of the test data of the Yunnan magnolia laser point cloud is most obvious, and the maximum absolute error value is 3.46m 3 . Compared with different laser point cloud crown volume extraction methods, the maximum value of the absolute error of crown extraction based on the method is 2.33m 3 The maximum value of the relative error is 3.40%, and compared with the existing method, the method has higher extraction precision and keeps better applicability to different crown forms and tree species. The analysis reason is that the point cloud boundary detection method well considers the irregularity of the external outline of the crown by detecting the crown boundary points and generating the three-dimensional convex hull, but when the crown shape has larger spurs, the unreasonable convex hull distorts the crown volume extraction result; the volume extraction of the crown of the point cloud layering is realized by cutting the crown into a plurality of faults and regarding the faults as a regular round table, and the volume calculation of the crown only considers the form of a sampling surface of the fault and does not consider the spatial characteristic of the crown between two sampling surfaces, so that the volume result of the layer elliptic crown is smaller, and the volume extraction result of the irregular-shaped crown is larger; according to the invention, the discrete three-dimensional laser point cloud is projected to the three-dimensional spherical coordinate space, the crown layer is cut into a plurality of conical micro-elements, the difference of the crown side outline can be described more finely, the micro-element volume is divided in the spherical coordinate space, the factors such as point cloud internal loss, crown shape difference and the like are taken into account better, and higher extraction precision and universality are shown.
