Abstract
Remote sensing is a promising tool for monitoring forest health. Foliar mass, or correspondingly leaf area index (LAI), together with chlorophyll concentration in the foliage, are two suitable measures of forest health. So far, airborne laser scanning has proven to be very suitable for measuring LAI. The work is in progress, and still in an early phase.
