Globalidar is dedicated to providing the best software in lidar data processing and information extraction. Our software is called Tiffs (Toolbox for Lidar Data Filtering and Forest Studies), which was featured in the cover of the February issue of Photogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing (PE&RS), the official journal of photogrammetry and geospatial society in the U.S.
The core algorithms in Tiffs have won a couple of prestigious awards including the Best Paper Award in the Remote Sensing Specialty Group of Association of American Geographer in 2005. Most of the algorithms are published in the peer-reviewed journal PE&RS. The filtering algorithm was validated with the benchmark dataset provided by ISPRS (the International Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing). The comparison with the other well-known algorithms showed that our algorithm achieved the best overall accuracy. The tree isolation method used a conquer-and-divided strategy and has the advantages of minimizing both omission (missing trees) and commission (overcounting trees) errors. The canopy structure estimation is based on an innovative metric called canopy geometric volume, which has solid scientific roots in plant allometry.
Tiffs have generated tremendous excitement in the LIDAR remote sensing and forestry communities due to its automatic, accurate, and quick generation of digital elevation or surface models and its unique capability in extracting forest information from individual-tree to regional scales.
We invite you to share the excitement of using our software: Tiffs!
