Description

A kind of method utilizing laser point cloud to calculate three-dimensional Forest Canopy extinction coefficient
One, technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method that cloud data utilizing Three Dimensional Ground laser scanner to obtain calculates Forest Canopy extinction coefficient, specifically, what refer to a kind of improvement utilizes computational geometry algorithm to calculate the method (flow process as shown in Figure 1) of the extinction coefficient under any given incident ray of three-dimensional Forest Canopy.
Two, background technology
Forest Canopy structure occupies an important position in the interaction of soil-canopy-air, and closely related with the Exchange of material and energy in biogeochemical cycle.Extinction coefficient is defined as unit leaf area perpendicular to the averaging projection's area in the plane of radiation direction, is the important factor of quantitative understanding Forest Canopy structure and radiation transmission.He is the directional distribution function (comprising inclination angle and azimuthal distribution function) based on Leaf inclination, and the incident ray for any given angle calculates.
The Leaf angle inclination distribution density function obtaining Vegetation canopy indirectly, is exactly a challenging job all the time, and traditional method mainly utilizes the method directly observed by blade to obtain the Leaf angle inclination distribution density function of given isolated tree.Such as: a kind of instrument (accompanying drawing 2 is left) measuring blade angle and space distribution comparatively simply and easily of the equipment makings such as people's utilization hornwork and compass such as Norman; The people such as Lang utilize the dirigibility of mechanical arm and cleverly geometry transitive relation made a kind of instrument (accompanying drawing 2 is right) being used for measuring blade space and angular distribution that can move freely and stretch.
But because its workload is large, subjectivity is strong, and the limited height system to measured target trees, so can not be widely used in practical study.Even more important a bit direct observation often affects the structure of even vegetation destruction canopy, and then destroys the inner and following radiation profiles situation of canopy.And with regard to forest, be difficult in reality utilize direct observation instrument to carry out by Blade measuring.Therefore, need a kind of quick, accurate, round-about way newly to obtain angle and the space distribution situation of canopy leaves.In recent years, also someone start trial indirectly obtain blade tilt distribution.Such as, within 2007, Shilbayama and Watanabe is published in " Estimating the mean leaf inclination angle of wheat canopies using reflected polarized light " literary composition of periodical " Plant Production Science " the 10th volume, proposes to utilize reflecting polarised light to the evaluation method of the Leaf inclination that is averaged..
At present, a kind of comparatively popular method is also had to be the blade actual distribution utilizing mathematics geometric model to carry out approaching to reality trees approx, wherein widely accepted what model of spheroid being Campbell and proposing in the eighties in 20th century.Its core concept is that the different distributions at each tangent plane inclination angle, spheroid surface carrys out the angular distribution of the actual blade of approximate expression, and regulates the change of different angle distribution density function by the long and short axle of adjustment spheroid.The method can use following equation expression:
ξ ( α ) = 2 χ 3 sin α Λ ( cos 2 α + χ 2 sin 2 α ) 2 - - - ( 1 )
Wherein &chi; = b / a , &Lambda; = &chi; + ( sin - 1 &epsiv; ) / &epsiv; , &chi; < 1 , &epsiv; = ( 1 - &chi; 2 ) 1 / 2 &chi; + ln [ ( 1 + &epsiv; 1 ) / ( 1 - &epsiv; 1 ) ] 2 &epsiv; 1 &chi; , &chi; > 1 , &epsiv; 1 = ( 1 - &chi; - 2 ) 1 / 2 , 0 &le; &alpha; &le; &pi; / 2 ,
When χ=1, this distribution will become sphere distribution, and now Λ=2, a, b are half short, semi-major axis of spheroid respectively.But the actual distribution of approaching blade that this method is just approximate in theory, is not enough to describe protean truth.
The appearance of ground laser radar scanner makes us directly can obtain the Forest Canopy structural information of high precision (grade) from three-dimensional perspective, and then calculates the extinction coefficient of canopy.Domestic about the applied research of laser radar in forest at present, the research particularly for three-dimensional canopy structure is also in starting and exploratory stage.Existing research major part concentrates on parameter (comprising the diameter of a cross-section of a tree trunk 1.3 meters above the ground, the height of tree and biomass etc.) the extraction aspect utilizing ground laser radar to carry out basic every wooden dipping of higher or forest sample ground level.Such as: the people such as Ma Liqun in 2011 describe laser radar and extracting the application in Forest Vertical structural parameters in " application of laser radar in the estimation of Forest Vertical structural parameters " literary composition of " World Forestry research " the 1st volume; In the forest application aspect of laser radar, generating high-precision digital terrain model is a wherein crucial step, the people such as Zhou Shufang 2007 " remote sensing technology and application " the 22nd volume " DEM based on airborne laser radar data obtains and applies " literary composition in inquired into the method and the exact evaluation that utilize airborne laser radar system to generate digital terrain model.In addition, the people such as Pang Yong has carried out a large amount of more deep research to the height of tree estimation having utilized laser radar system to extract forest Dan Mu and sample prescription level between 2006-2009.But the research theory and technology of the domestic three dimensional point cloud extraction canopy extinction coefficient to utilizing laser radar to obtain is deep not enough at present, needs to strengthen further.
Three, summary of the invention
The object of the invention is:
A set of three dimensional point cloud directly utilizing ground laser radar system to generate is provided, in conjunction with the method for computational geometry, calculates the individual plant trees of any given incident light or the algorithm of forest sample prescription extinction coefficient from three-dimensional perspective.And the contactless method quick and precisely observing Forest Canopy structural characteristic parameter is provided.
Principle of the present invention is as follows:
Utilize newer remote sensing technology means (Three Dimensional Ground Laser Radar Scanning system), in conjunction with the technological means of computational geometry, individual plant trees the direct acquisition of the angle from three-dimensional assigned direction incident light and the extinction coefficient of forest sample size blade, and then calculate the extinction coefficient of Vegetation canopy.First set up the position that three-dimensional mathematical model accurately locates individual blade, adopt computational geometry method on this basis, gridding is carried out to three dimensional point cloud, utilizes the some cloud of point cloud slicing algorithm to differing heights to classify.Then carry out line sampling analysis, obtain the relevant information that blade intercepts and captures light, and then calculate the projection coefficient of each slicing layer, i.e. extinction coefficient, thus the extinction coefficient obtaining whole canopy.Complete the calculating of averaging projection's coefficient of extinction coefficient under given incident ray and canopy entirety.
Technical scheme of the present invention mainly comprises the following steps:
(1) first utilize ground laser radar scanning system, obtain the three dimensional point cloud of Vegetation canopy.Wherein contain the energy information that the scanning space geometry of impact point and laser beam are rebounded, three-dimensional coordinate directly provides the locus coordinate information of any point, and this is also the basis of the mathematical model in traditional optical theory.First the cloud data obtained carries out image mosaic, and manual removably millet cake cloud.
(2) three dimensional network is formatted.First define the cartesian coordinate system of X, Y, a Z tri-coordinate axis in a territory, cloud sector, all cloud datas are comprised wherein.And cloud data is divided into limited zonule, set up the data structure based on volume elements (voxel), this process is called three dimensional network and formats.Each volume elements by growing (l) wide (w), high (h) three parameters determine its size, all cloud datas are divided into m × n × p volume elements, wherein, m=(X max-X min)/w, n=(Y max-Y min)/l, P=(Z max-Z min)/h.If l=w=h, then volume elements is a cube.With the three-dimensional center of these cloud datas point, i.e. [(X max-X min)/2, (Y max-Y min)/2, (Z max-Z min)/2] be new initial point, set up cartesian coordinate system.Coordinate axis Z is the direction of growth of trunk, and perpendicular to surface level, X, Y-axis are positioned in the plane vertical with Z axis, and Z axis is longitudinal axle, and X, Y-axis are horizontal axle.As shown in accompanying drawing 3 (a, b, c).
(3) point cloud slicing algorithm.After the three dimensional network process of formatting terminates, cloud data is divided into numerous data Layers in direction in length and breadth, namely cuts into slices, and cloud data can be considered the superposition of direction section in length and breadth.Dropping cut slice as Suo Shi accompanying drawing 3 (d).All volume elements be set to (i, j, k) (i=1,2 ..., m; J=1,2 ... n; K=1,2 ..., p).Work as k=1, i and j is the arbitrary value in given area, then can be expressed as ground floor or first cross section all volume elements.
In order to the relative position relation of approximate simulation incident ray and Forest Canopy, develop the slicing mode of another point of rotation cloud.First, by the relative position that cloud data rotation will be simulated to us, then three dimensional network is carried out to it and format.Such dropping cut slice is parallel with the plane at XY axle place, and vertical section is parallel with the plane at Z axis place.We suppose that direct sunlight is injected from zenith direction, parallel with Z-direction.When incident light direction changes, realize by rotating cloud data.
Specifically, the central point of three dimensional point cloud is the initial point of cartesian coordinate system, and cloud data then rotates around X, Y, Z axis according to the needs of a cloud with section relative position.Such as, cloud data is rotated 30 ° around Y-axis, be equivalent to a cloud and cut into slices or sun incident light is cut into slices with the pitch angle of 30 °.Therefore, some cloud can (level 0 °-360 °, vertical 0 °-90 °) be cut into slices at an arbitrary position, is called directivity section.Any cloud data all generates thin plate to extract three-dimensional canopy information by directivity section.
(4) line sampling analysis.Blade space distribution is in a slice analyzed by the line method of sampling.The section of each position of cloud data is made up of many line-transects, and these line-transects are perpendicular or parallel in sun incident light r (θ, β).When studying the distribution along r direction blade, be consider the line-transect parallel with r.If the three-dimensional parameter of each volume elements to be set to 1.5 times of laser radar sampled distance, we can ensure that each volume elements at most only comprises a sampling point.So, in every bar line-transect, volume elements (N) number of non-NULL represents the line-transect number of times crossing with blade, and N obeys stochastic distribution.If be greater than 1.5 times of sampled distance, when comprising multiple sampling point in a volume elements, we to need spot projections all on line-transect, on the face parallel with line-transect direction, to calculate different N values, as the number of times crossing with blade.
Definition P nfor line-transect through whole cloud data time, with the possibility of crossing n time of blade.P 0what expression line-transect passed through is all space, and summation exponent is 0.By solving the mean value of all line-transects through N during vegetation, can in the hope of the mean value (m) of line-transects all in whole cloud data number of times crossing with blade and variance (σ 2).This number of times intersected not is actual blade point cloud density, but projects to the projection in the plane vertical with line-transect direction.Variance (the σ of every bar line-transect 2the relative change of)/average (m) can reflect the distribution situation of blade at real space.The Leaf positional distribution of isolated tree or standing forest can change (σ relatively according to it 2/ m=1, > 1, and < 1) be divided into three kinds of situations accordingly: regular distribution, stochastic distribution and Assembled distribution.
Line sampling analysis is the key calculating whole canopy and differing heights section extinction coefficient, is conducive to a cloud density, radiation flux and the isoparametric acquisition of radiation profiles situation simultaneously.
(5), when sun incident light pitch angle (θ) is fixing, averaging projection's coefficient of kth layer section is calculated.When only studying the sun incident light in r (θ, a β) direction, the projection coefficient G of that is kth layer section kr () refers to the projection coefficient in fixing r (θ, β) direction.When not considering incident light position angle, and k layer averaging projection coefficient G when pitch angle is θ k(θ) be, by the integral and calculating of azimuthal angle beta on [0,2 π]:
G k ( &theta; ) = &Integral; 0 2 &pi; G k ( r ) d&beta; - - - ( 2 )
(6) projection coefficient under any given incident ray is calculated, i.e. extinction coefficient.First consider to cut into slices with fixed-direction r (θ, β), complete after three dimensional network formats at cloud data, all three-dimensional point clouds are all enclosed in three-dimensional border, generate section and the line-transect of horizontal and vertical.If all sections are parallel with direction r (θ, β), so all line-transects are also parallel to direction r (θ, β), and namely the direction of the longitudinal axis represents this direction.Each volume elements can build a plane perpendicular to this main shaft, and all sampling points can project in this plane.In three-dimensional mesh frame, this projecting plane be two volume elements borders perpendicular to line-transect direction it.If the sampling point number comprised in each non-NULL volume elements is n:
If a. n=1, the square of each two dimension is with user's sampling interval for the length of side, then sampling point represents the center of this square leaf area.If sampling interval is s, then leaf area area is s × s.Projection coefficient is take Sampling Distance as the area (i.e. s × s) of the length of side, with the area ratio of length (the l) × width (w) of volume elements.
If b. n=2, can build a line-transect to represent leaf area, projected area of blade is that the projected length of this line-transect is multiplied by foursquare unit area.Projection coefficient is the line-transect length ratio after projection and before projection.
If c. n >=3, first detect whether all points all on a face or a line.If on same line-transect, then these points are decomposed (n=2) on less yardstick.If on the same face, then build a triangle and represent leaf area, projected area of blade is calculated by the projection coordinate on three summits.Three projection coordinates are set to (x 1, y 1), (x 2, y 2), (x 3, y 3), leg-of-mutton projected area A pi.e. projected area of blade, by following matrix computations:
A p = 1 2 &times; x 1 y 1 1 x 2 y 2 1 x 3 y 3 1 - - - ( 3 )
If the institute d. in volume elements is a little not coplanar or on one wire, then the convex closure that structure one is three-dimensional, namely the half of convex closure surface area represents actual blade area (A).Then, by all spot projections in the plane parallel with line-transect, set up the convex closure of two dimension with these points, namely its area represents the blade area (A of projection p)
In sum, projection coefficient A p/ A is calculated by non-NULL volume elements.Kth layer is perpendicular to the projection coefficient G of incident light kr () can by following formulae discovery:
G k ( r ) = 1 N &Sigma; &xi; = 1 N A p&xi; / A &xi; - - - ( 4 )
Wherein N is total number of kth layer section non-NULL volume elements, and k is the number of plies of section.
Obtain G kr, after (), substitution formula (2), obtains averaging projection's coefficient of each slicing layer, the projection coefficient (i.e. extinction coefficient) of whole canopy is the summation of each layer section projection coefficient.
Compared with prior art, Advantages found of the present invention exists: laser radar technique provides effective technological means for obtaining Forest Canopy structural parameters from three-dimensional perspective, indirect observation is carried out in conjunction with computational geometry method, compared with conventional observation means, workload is little, without the need to contact observation, do not destroy canopy structure and radiation characteristic, there is objective efficient accurate feature; Develop the method extracting three-dimensional structure and biophysics diversity information from laser radar data, by the Concentration Changing Pattern characterization of blade.
Concrete beneficial effect is as follows:
The three dimensional point cloud that the present invention utilizes laser scanner to obtain, calculates the extinction coefficient of Forest Canopy based on volume elements, provides a kind of indirectly without the need to the method for the observation Forest Canopy biophysical parameters of contact.The present invention keeps sunshine incident along longitudinal axis direction above tree crown by rotating cloud data, carry out sunshine in simulating reality situation and irradiate the sight of tree crown in different angles, not only easy but also efficient, and any harmful effect can not be caused to forest structure and radiation characteristic.The present invention not only can calculate the extinction coefficient of canopy entirety, and can also calculate the extinction coefficient of tree crown differing heights section, this is conducive to studying light radiation retaining and distribution mechanism in canopy inside further, and the research of other biological physical parameter.The present invention observes from three dimensions Forest Canopy mechanism, its key utilizes geometric projection technology that three dimensional point cloud is converted to two-dimensional grid image, calculate the extinction coefficient of canopy differing heights plane from different directions, not only greatly improve estimation precision, and provide bulk information for the research of radiation transmission mechanism of canopy inside.
