T/CSES 123-2023 Technical Specifications for UAV Surveys of Grassland Plant Diversity
T/CSES 123-2023
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the general requirements for drone surveys of grassland plant diversity, survey preparation, data collection and preprocessing, obtaining plant diversity survey parameters, and organizing and archiving results. This document is applicable to conducting grassland plant diversity surveys using drones. Main technical content: The standard includes eight sections: scope, normative references, terms and definitions, overall workflow, survey preparation, data collection and preprocessing, obtaining plant diversity survey parameters, and organizing and archiving results, as well as an appendix. The main work specified by the standard is to process and calculate one or more types of data obtained from drones, such as visible light images, multispectral images, and LiDAR point clouds, to obtain parameters such as species richness, frequency, height, canopy cover, and biomass. These parameters are then verified using ground survey results, and the results are finally organized and archived according to certain requirements.
