This consists of the acquisition process for raw imaging data from the Sentinel 5P TROPOMI and the computation component to produce processed Level 2 Formaldehyde (HCHO) total column data.", "computationComponent": [ { "ob_id": 38838, "uuid": "83b75e6d88a2425cbb13909b5afd7a57", "short_code": "comp", "title": "Level 2 Formaldehyde (HCHO) total column processing algorithm applied to Sentinel 5P TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) raw data", "abstract": "The general method used for the derivation of HCHO VCDs from UV spectral measurements is the Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy method (DOAS; Platt and Stutz, 2008) which involves two main steps. First, the effective slant column amount (corresponding to the integrated HCHO concentration along the mean atmospheric optical path: Ns) is derived through a least-squares fit of the measured Earth reflectance spectrum by laboratory absorption cross-sections and a low order polynomial. Subsequently, a correction is applied to the slant column values to correct for appearing biases that may be of known or unknown origin. Finally, slant columns are converted into vertical columns by means of air mass factors (AMF) obtained from suitable radiative transfer calculations, accounting for the presence of clouds, surface properties, and best-guess HCHO vertical profiles.\r\n\r\nIn the UV, the sensitivity to HCHO concentrations in the boundary layer is intrinsically limited from space due to the combined effect of Rayleigh and Mie scattering that limits the radiation fraction scattered back toward the satellite. In addition, ozone absorption reduces the number of photons that reaches the lowest atmospheric layers. Furthermore, the absorption signatures of HCHO are weaker than those of other UV Vis absorbers, such as e.g. NO2. As a result, the retrieval of formaldehyde from space is noise sensitive and error prone. While the precision (or random error uncertainty) is driven by the signal to noise ratio of the recorded spectra and by the width of the retrieval interval, the trueness (or systematic error uncertainty) is limited by the current knowledge of the external parameters needed in the different retrieval steps.\r\n\r\nThe selection of the optimal retrieval interval must maximize the sensitivity of the inversion to the HCHO absorption signatures while minimizing errors from geophysical and instrument related spectral features. The retrieval interval should be chosen as wide as possible to maximize the number of sampling points while avoiding overlap with strong atmospheric spectral features from interfering species (mainly O3, BrO, and O4). The DOAS algorithm intrinsically assumes that the atmosphere is optically thin so that the optical light path is independent of wavelength within the fitting window. Hence the method is accurate only for modest ozone absorption (i.e., for small to medium solar zenith angles). Generally, the effect of ozone misfit on the retrieval can be handled by introducing wavelength dependent-AMF in the fit, and by applying appropriate background corrections on the columns. The correlation with BrO absorption can be reduced by using two different wavelength intervals to fit BrO and HCHO (see section 5.3: Formaldehyde slant column retrieval).\r\n\r\nThe Sentinel-5P sensor TROPOMI samples the Earth’s surface with a revisit time of one day and with an unprecedented spatial resolution of 7x3.5 km2 (5.5x3.5 km2 from 6 August 2019). Furthermore, the signal to noise ratio of TROPOMI is required to be equivalent to OMI in the UV-Visible range. This allows the resolution of fine details and S5P will arguably be a valuable tool to better study NMVOC emissions. Nevertheless, it poses additional constraints on the retrieval code for several reasons:\r\n1. Computational speed: the Level 1b data flow delivers spectral measurements for band 3 with a size of 4 gigabytes per orbit (15 orbits daily).\r\n2. Precision: given the required signal to noise ratio of measured spectra, the air quality requirements for HCHO [RD04] will not be met for individual ground pixels. Spatial and temporal averages of the HCHO columns will have to be considered in order to provide useful constraints on human and natural NMVOC emissions.\r\n3. Trueness: currently, the spatial resolution of global-scale external parameters needed in the AMF calculation (e.g. albedo or a priori HCHO profiles) is much coarser than the resolution of TROPOMI. This introduces errors in the final vertical columns, mostly for coastal regions and localized sources (Heckel et al., 2011) \r\n\r\nTo fully exploit the potential of satellite data, applications relying on tropospheric HCHO observations require high quality long-term time series, provided with well characterized errors and averaging kernels, and consistently retrieved from the different sensors. Furthermore, as the HCHO observations are aimed to be used synergistically with other species observations (e.g. for air quality applications), it is essential to homogenize as far as possible the retrieval methods as well as the external databases, in order to minimize systematic biases between the observations." } ], "acquisitionComponent": [ { "ob_id": 26443, "uuid": "929d929b043242e69de7b5373acfb611", "short_code": "acq", "title": "Acquisition Process for: Sentinel 5P TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI)", "abstract": "The acquisition process for the collection of data from the European Space Agency (ESA) Sentinel 5P TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI)." } ], "identifier_set": [], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ 186567, 186566 ] }, { "ob_id": 38858, "uuid": "9bdb1c9d505d40049358c3ba34dd3e26", "title": "Composite Process for: Level 2 data from the Sentinel 3A Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI)", "abstract": "Composite process for Level 2 data from the Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI) deployed on Sentinel 3A.

Each parameter and its associated flags are produced only if the associated switch is set to '1'. As a consequence, the module generating each parameter is triggered only if the appropriate switch is set to '1'.\r\n\r\nThe pre-processing module, starting from the Level-1B TOA radiances, derives reflectances corrected for gaseous absorption. The consolidation of pixel classifications from Level-1B and the definition of water vapour retrieval are included in this module.\r\n\r\nThe algorithm is divided into five successive steps:\r\n\r\n1. The conversion from radiances to reflectances step-checks the Level-1B products and converts radiances into reflectances (also known as first instrumental correction).\r\n2. To be correctly taken into account or to be rejected from the algorithm, pixels have to be differentiated according to four criteria: cloud, land, water and invalid pixels. The first pixel classification focuses on identification of cloudy pixels. This Cloud masking will be improved in the frame of coming evolutions, including the improvement tested and validated during the MERIS 4th reprocessing.\r\n3. Gaseous correction: correcting reflectances for gaseous absorption (i.e. O2, H2O and O3). Five OLCI bands are dedicated to this correction and are not used after this step: Oa13 to Oa15, Oa19 and Oa20.\r\n4. The second-pixel classification estimates glint reflectance and completes pixel classification starting at the second step by consolidating the classification of land and water pixels.\r\n5.

The OLCI Terrestrial Chlorophyll Index (OTCI) section uses Rayleigh correction to produce the necessary index.

Images including bursts that form a given frame are extracted and merged into frame images. These are coregistered towards a primary frame image (a master image) that was set during the initialization of a frame, beforehand. The coregistration process includes spectral diversity and other necessary corrections. Once coregistered, the interferograms are formed by combining the new image with three chronologically previous ones. This way is suitable for interpretation and for further use of the interferograms in multitemporal InSAR processing methods based on small baselines strategy (e.g. NSBAS approach currently implemented into custom LiCSBAS chain [ LiCSBAS: An Open-Source InSAR Time Series Analysis Package Integrated with the LiCSAR Automated Sentinel-1 InSAR Processor paper in the docs tab]).

The coastal zones of Greenland are included. \r\n\r\nThe CryoClim FSC time series provides daily products for the period 1982 – 2019. \r\n\r\nThe CryoClim FSC product is based on a multi-sensor time-series fusion algorithm combining observations by optical and passive microwave radiometer (PMR) data. The product combines an historical record of AVHRR sensor data with PMR data from SMMR, SSM/I and SSMIS sensors. \r\nThe overall aim of the CryoClim FSC climate data record is to provide one of the longest snow cover extent time series available with global coverage and without hindrance from clouds and polar night. This has been achieved by utilising the best features of optical and passive microwave radiometer observations of snow using a sensor-fusion algorithm generating a consistent time series of global FSC products (Solberg et al. 2014, 2015; Rudjord et al. 2015). \r\n\r\nThe snow_cci project has advanced the original CryoClim binary product to an FSC product. The thematic variable represents snow on the ground (SCFG). \r\n\r\nAVHRR sensors aboard the satellites NOAA-7, -9, -11, -14, -16, -18, -19 have been used as the optical data source, and SMMR, SSM/I and SSMIS sensors aboard the DMSP F8, DMSP F11, DMSP F13 and DMSP F17 satellites, respectively, have been used as PMR data source. To have the best possible input data quality, we have used fundamental climate data records (FCDRs) developed by EUMETSAT CM SAF for AVHRR (Karlson et al. 2020) and PMR (Fenning et al. 2017).\r\n\r\nThe optical algorithm component processes all available swaths from AVHRR GAC. The calculations are based on a Bayesian approach using a set of signatures (instrument channel combinations) and statistical coefficients. For each pixel of the swath, the probabilities for the surface classes snow, bare ground and cloud are estimated. The statistical coefficients are based on pre-knowledge of the typical behaviour of the surface classes in the different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum.\r\n\r\nThe algorithm for PMR is also based on a Bayesian estimation approach. For SSM/I and SSMIS four snow classes were defined to model the snow surface state. For SMMR two classes were considered. The algorithm estimates the probability for each snow class given the PMR measurements. Land cover data are included to improve the performance of the Bayesian algorithm. This made it possible to construct a Bayesian estimator for each land cover regime. \r\n\r\nThe multi-sensor multi-temporal fusion algorithm (Rudjord et al. 2015; Solberg et al. 2017) is based on a hidden Markov model (HMM) simulating the snow states based on observations with PMR and optical sensors. The basic idea is to simulate the states the snow surface goes through during the snow season with a state model. The states are not directly observable, but the remote sensing observations give data describing the snow conditions, which are related to the snow states. The HMM solution represents not only a multi-sensor model but also a multi-temporal model. The sequence of states over time is conditioned to follow certain optimisation criteria.\r\n\r\nThe advancement from binary to fractional snow cover carried out by snow_cci has followed two main paths: First, we introduced more HMM states to be able to classify the snow cover into 10% FSC intervals. However, introducing 100 primary states to obtain 1% FSC intervals would not give a stable model. For obtaining higher precision, we have interpolated between HMM states using a secondary Viterbi sequence. The two probabilities are used as weights to estimate the FSC.\r\n\r\nPermanent snow and ice, and water areas are masked based on the Land Cover CCI data set of the year 2000.

The processing steps to retrieve SDRs are:\r\n pixel classification for cloud, water, etc.. detection\r\n retrieval of aerosol optical thickness\r\n atmospheric correction using retrieved aerosol optical thickness\r\nThe results are SDR values in the same granularity as the inputs. They are not written for distinct products, but just kept in memory and used as input to the next part of the processing chain. The processing steps are\r\n broad-band integration of these SDRs\r\n re-projection of these broad-band SDRs onto the MODIS Sinusoidal grid\r\nThe results of this step are re-projected broadband directional reflectances (BBDR) still in the granularity of the input products. During implementation, it has been decided to store this intermediate product of BBDR tiles on disk, but to remove them subsequently after the BRDF computation (accumulation/inversion). The steps are:\r\n computation of BRDFs every 8-days and every month of the broad-band BBDRs from all sensors by accumulation method, using an additional land cover mask information from Idepix\r\n computation of the albedo from these BRDFs\r\nThe final results are 8-day, monthly, seasonal, and annual composites of broadband\r\nalbedo. \r\nFor more information on the processing please see the product user guide and the ATBD in the docs tab." } ], "acquisitionComponent": [ { "ob_id": 8344, "uuid": "c1311786388a421fa0675d8b69258757", "short_code": "acq", "title": "Acquisition Process for: Data from Envisat - MERIS at Envisat for the MEdium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) Project", "abstract": "This acquisition is comprised of the following: INSTRUMENTS: Envisat - MERIS; PLATFORMS: Envisat; " }, { "ob_id": 8283, "uuid": "14d30db63bb043cfa8693b8e02c6f556", "short_code": "acq", "title": "Acquisition Process for: SPOT (Earth-Observing Satellites) Imagery", "abstract": "This acquisition is comprised of the following: INSTRUMENTS: High Resolution Visible Imaging Instrument (HRV); PLATFORMS: SPOT (Earth Observing Satellites) Earth Observation System; " } ], "identifier_set": [], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ 197611, 197612 ] }, { "ob_id": 40637, "uuid": "0114f101e5a84fb0b1cf00d4438b65c8", "title": "Forest Scan UAV Paracou 2019", "abstract": "Forest Scan UAV Paracou 2019", "computationComponent": [ { "ob_id": 40634, "uuid": "048e6ac7c94f41c99164b19127855ca0", "short_code": "comp", "title": "Yellowscan CloudStation computation for UAV Paracou", "abstract": "Export of raw LAS points with Yellowscan CloudStation software, with line adjustment option.Improvement of inter-line matching using BayesMap software (to account for a defect in roll angle of the scanner).

There are five main stages. The first is to take the Edition 1 GERB HR SW flux data with the user corrections applied and generate an albedo using knowledge of the incoming SW flux for each location and time. The albedo is then area weighted to create a 1° by 1° spatial resolution albedo for every 15-minute time interval. These data are then averaged over time to produce an hourly averaged albedo product for each hour of each day. Each hour interval is defined as the time-centred mean at half-past the hour, e.g. 1030 UTC comprises the mean of albedos from 1000 UTC, 1015 UTC, 1030 UTC and 1045 UTC (or from those slots in this window that are available). An hourly average albedo is produced for a 1° by 1° grid cell if there is one or more observation from the four observation times available for that grid cell. The averaged albedos are converted back to RSW flux using the incoming solar flux at the midpoint of the hour and 1° cell. The fourth stage identifies days where there are no observations available for the hour and fills them with broadband RSW fluxes derived from the narrowband SEVIRI data, averaged to the daily hourly scale in the same way as the GERB data and corrected to the GERB observations at the monthly hourly 1° scale1. Finally, a monthly mean for each hourly time step is calculated encompassing the full data. The number of filled data points (days per monthly hourly average) contributing to each monthly hourly mean are used to estimate the uncertainties associated with the product.

(2015) and complemented with a pre-classification module developed by ENVEO. For the SCFV product generation from MODIS, multiple reflective and emissive spectral bands are used. In a first step, clouds are masked using an adapted version of the Simple Cloud Detection Algorithm version 2.0 (SCDA2.0) (Metsämäki et al., 2015). All cloud free pixels are then used for the snow extent mapping, using spectral bands centred at about 550 nm and 1.6 µm, and an emissive band centred at about 11 µm. The snow_cci snow cover mapping algorithm is a two-step approach: first, a strict pre-classification is applied to identify all cloud free pixels which are certainly snow free. For all remaining pixels, the Snow_cci SCFV retrieval method is applied. \r\n\r\nThe main differences of the Snow_cci snow cover mapping algorithm compared to the GlobSnow algorithm described in Metsämäki et al. (2015) are (i) improvements of the cloud screening approach applicable on a global scale, (ii) the pre-classification of snow free areas on global land areas, (iii) the adaptation of the retrieval method using of a spatially variable ground reflectance instead of global constant values for snow free land, (iv) the update of the constant value for wet snow based on analyses of spatially distributed reflectance time series of MODIS data to assure in forested areas consistency of the SCFV and the SCFG CRDP v3.0 from MODIS data (https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/e955813b0e1a4eb7af971f923010b4a3/) using the same retrieval approach.\r\n\r\nImprovements of the Snow_cci SCFV version 3.0 compared to the Snow_cci version 2.0 include (i) an update in the pre-classification of snow free areas and (ii) an update of the constant reflectance value for wet snow based on the analysis of time series of the MODIS reflectance at 0.55 µm.\r\nPermanent snow and ice, and water areas are masked based on the Land Cover CCI data set of the year 2000. Both classes were separately aggregated to the pixel spacing of the SCFV product. Water areas are masked if more than 30 percent of the pixel is classified as water, permanent snow and ice areas are masked if more than 50 percent are identified as such areas in the aggregated map. A new mask for salt lakes derived from manual delineation based on Terra MODIS data is added in the version 3.0 products from Terra MODIS. The product uncertainty for observed land pixels is provided as unbiased root mean square error (RMSE) per pixel in the ancillary variable and has been adjusted to account for updates in the retrieval algorithm.

(2015) and complemented with a pre-classification module developed by ENVEO. For the SCFG product generation from MODIS, multiple reflective and emissive spectral bands are used. In a first step, clouds are masked using an adapted version of the Simple Cloud Detection Algorithm version 2.0 (SCDA2.0) (Metsämäki et al., 2015). All cloud free pixels are then used for the snow extent mapping, using spectral bands centred at about 0.55 µm and 1.6 µm, and an emissive band centred at about 11 µm. The Snow_cci snow cover mapping algorithm is a two-step approach: first, a strict pre-classification is applied to identify all cloud free pixels which are certainly snow free. For all remaining pixels, the snow_cci SCFG retrieval method is applied. \r\n\r\nThe main differences of the Snow_cci snow cover mapping algorithm compared to the GlobSnow algorithm described in Metsämäki et al. (2015) are (i) improvements of the cloud screening approach applicable on a global scale, (ii) the pre-classification of snow free areas on global land areas, (iii) the usage of spatially variable background reflectance and forest reflectance maps instead of global constant values for snow free land and forest, (iv) the update of the constant value for wet snow based on analyses of spatially distributed reflectance time series of MODIS data, and (v) the update of the global forest canopy transmissivity based on forest density from Hansen et al. (2013) and forest type layers from Land Cover CCI (Defourny, 2019) to assure in forested areas consistency of the SCFG and the SCFV CRDP v3.0 from MODIS data (https://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/80567d38de3f4b038ee6e6e53ed1af8a) using the same retrieval approach.\r\n\r\nImprovements of the Snow_cci SCFG version 3.0 compared to the Snow_cci version 2.0 include (i) an updated classification of snow free areas and (ii) an update of the constant reflectance value for wet snow based on the analysis of time series of the MODIS reflectance at 0.55 µm. \r\nPermanent snow and ice, and water areas are masked based on the Land Cover CCI data set of the year 2000. Both classes were separately aggregated to the pixel spacing of the SCFG product. Water areas are masked if more than 30 percent of the pixel is classified as water, permanent snow and ice areas are masked if more than 50 percent are identified as such areas in the aggregated map. A new mask for salt lakes derived from manual delineation based on Terra MODIS data is added in the version 3.0 products from Terra MODIS. The product uncertainty for observed land pixels is provided as unbiased root mean square error (RMSE) per pixel in the ancillary variable variable and has been adjusted to account for updates in the retrieval algorithm.

Plot directories contain a main project directory (named using the starting date of data collection, e.g. 2017-03-14.001.riproject) with nine data subdirectories, a tile_index.dat file as shown in the attached ForestScan_example_directory_structure.pdf document.\r\n\r\nThe raw project subdirectory contains all registered scans for each FBRMS 1ha plot. The matrix project subdirectory contains each scan’s Sensor's Orientation and Position (SOP) matrix.\r\nIn order to estimate woody volume and above ground biomass (AGB) for each plot, the TLS2trees processing pipeline was used. TLS2trees is an automated processing pipeline and set of Python command line tools that segments individual trees from plot level point clouds. It consists of existing and new methods and is specifically designed to be horizontally scalable. The TLS2trees pipeline includes three preparatory data steps followed by two segmentation steps: semantic & instance segmentation. Quantitative Structure Modelling (QSM) is then used to estimate morphological and topological tree traits via a four-step process: generate TreeQSM inputs, run TreeQSM, generate optQSM commands and run optQSM. Two final processing steps generated 1) a tree attributes .csv file and 2) tree figures of individually segmented trees arranged by tree DBH size. The complete set of TLS2trees processing files is available for each of the three ForestScan FBRMS plots in French Guiana, the step-by-step processing summary below provides details for these files.\r\n\r\nThe first of three preparatory data steps segmented the 100m x 100m plot point clouds into 10m x 10m data tiles and converted each tile from the RIEGL proprietary file format .rxp to .ply format. The resulting <0-NNN>.ply files (NNN is the assigned tile ID number) + a subdirectory named bounding_box containing bounding geometry files + a tile_index.dat file were saved into the rxp2ply project subdirectory. The second preparatory data step down-sampled the data tiles with results saved as tileID.downsample.ply files in the downsample project subdirectory, e.g. 000.downsample.ply. The third preparatory data step generated a tile_index.dat file saved under the project directory. Next, a semantic segmentation step classified the tiled data into leaf, wood, ground or coarse woody debris. For each data tile, three different files tileID.downsample.dem.csv, tileID.downsample.params.pickle, tileID.downsample.segmented.ply + a temporary subdirectory tileID.downsample.tmp were generated and saved in the fsct project subdirectory. Instance segmentation was then used to automatically segment the semantically classified tiled data into individual tree files. Two automatically segmented versions of each tree (with and without canopy leaves) were generated and saved in subdirectories arranged by increasing DBH size (i.e. subdirectory 0.0 contains the smallest trees in the plot) under the clouds project subdirectory, e.g. clouds/N.N/tileID_TreeID.leafon.ply and clouds/N.N/tileID_TreeID.leafoff.ply.\r\n\r\nQuantitative Structure Modelling (QSM) was then used to enclose the wood-only file version (i.e. tileID_TreeID.leafoff.ply) of each individually segmented tree in a set of geometric primitives i.e. cylinders. This allowed for the estimation of morphological and topological traits such as volume, length and surface area metrics for each successfully modelled tree. The first QSM processing step generated 125 modelling input files representing 125 different parameter combinations for each individually segmented tree. These files were saved as tileID_TreeID_NNN.m (NNN ranges from 0 to 124) in the models/intermediate/inputs project subdirectory, e.g. models/intermediate/inputs/tileID_TreeID/tileID_TreeID_<0-124>.m. Next, up to 625 different model candidates for each segmented tree were generated from the modelling input files and saved as tileID_TreeID-NNN.mat files (NNN ranges from 0 to 624) in the models/intermediate/results project subdirectory, e.g. models/intermediate/results/tileID_TreeID/tileID_TreeID-NNN.mat. QSM command files to find the optimal QSM for each segmented tree were then generated and saved as tileID_TreeID_opt.m files in the models/optqsm/commands project subdirectory, e.g. models/optqsm/commands/tileID_TreeID_opt.m. During the final QSM step, an optimal model was found for each successfully modelled segmented tree and saved as a tileID_TreeID.mat file in the models/optqsm/results project subdirectory, e.g. models/optqsm/results/tileID_TreeID.mat.\r\n\r\nAfter QSM modelling, a report file named projectID.tree-attributes.csv was generated for each plot and saved in the attributes project subdirectory, e.g. attributes/projectID.tree-attributes.csv.

Plot directories contain a main project directory (named using the starting date of data collection and the plot ID, e.g. 2022-06-24_LPG-01_PROJ) with nine data sub-directories, a tile_index.dat file and a 2022-06-24_LPG-01.kmz file as shown in the archived ForestScan_example_data_directory_structure.pdf document.\r\n\r\nThe raw project sub-directory contains all registered scans for each FBRMS 1ha plot.

TLS2trees is an automated processing pipeline and set of Python command line tools that segments individual trees from plot level point clouds. It consists of existing and new methods and is specifically designed to be horizontally scalable. The TLS2trees pipeline includes three preparatory data steps followed by two segmentation steps: semantic & instance segmentation. Quantitative Structure Modelling (QSM) is then used to estimate morphological and topological tree traits via a four-step process: generate TreeQSM inputs, run TreeQSM, generate optQSM commands and run optQSM. Two final processing steps generated 1) a tree attributes .csv file and 2) tree figures of individually segmented trees arranged by tree DBH size. The complete set of TLS2trees processing files is available for each of the four ForestScan FBRMS plots in Gabon, the step-by-step processing summary below provides details for these files.\r\n\r\nThe first of three preparatory data steps segmented the 100m x 100m plot point clouds into 10m x 10m data tiles and converted each tile from the RIEGL proprietary file format .rxp to .ply format. The resulting <0-NNN>.ply files (NNN is the assigned tile ID number) + a subdirectory named bounding_box containing bounding geometry files + a tile_index.dat file were saved into the rxp2ply project subdirectory. The second preparatory data step down-sampled the data tiles with results saved as tileID.downsample.ply files in the downsample project subdirectory, e.g. 000.downsample.ply. The third preparatory data step generated a tile_index.dat file saved under the project directory. Next, a semantic segmentation step classified the tiled data into leaf, wood, ground or coarse woody debris. For each data tile, three different files tileID.downsample.dem.csv, tileID.downsample.params.pickle, tileID.downsample.segmented.ply + a temporary subdirectory tileID.downsample.tmp were generated and saved in the fsct project subdirectory. Instance segmentation was then used to automatically segment the semantically classified tiled data into individual tree files. Two automatically segmented versions of each tree (with and without canopy leaves) were generated and saved in subdirectories arranged by increasing DBH size (i.e. subdirectory 0.0 contains the smallest trees in the plot) under the clouds project subdirectory, e.g. clouds/N.N/tileID_TreeID.leafon.ply and clouds/N.N/tileID_TreeID.leafoff.ply.\r\n\r\nQuantitative Structure Modelling (QSM) was then used to enclose the wood-only file version (i.e. tileID_TreeID.leafoff.ply) of each individually segmented tree in a set of geometric primitives i.e. cylinders. This allowed for the estimation of morphological and topological traits such as volume, length and surface area metrics for each successfully modelled tree. The first QSM processing step generated 125 modelling input files representing 125 different parameter combinations for each individually segmented tree. These files were saved as tileID_TreeID_NNN.m (NNN ranges from 0 to 124) in the models/intermediate/inputs project subdirectory, e.g. models/intermediate/inputs/tileID_TreeID/tileID_TreeID_<0-124>.m. Next, up to 625 different model candidates for each segmented tree were generated from the modelling input files and saved as tileID_TreeID-NNN.mat files (NNN ranges from 0 to 624) in the models/intermediate/results project subdirectory, e.g. models/intermediate/results/tileID_TreeID/tileID_TreeID-NNN.mat. QSM command files to find the optimal QSM for each segmented tree were then generated and saved as tileID_TreeID_opt.m files in the models/optqsm/commands project subdirectory, e.g. models/optqsm/commands/tileID_TreeID_opt.m. During the final QSM step, an optimal model was found for each successfully modelled segmented tree and saved as a tileID_TreeID.mat file in the models/optqsm/results project subdirectory, e.g. models/optqsm/results/tileID_TreeID.mat.\r\n\r\nAfter QSM modelling, a report file named projectID.tree-attributes.csv was generated for each plot and saved in the attributes project sub-directory, e.g. attributes/projectID.tree-attributes.csv.
