Just wrapped up an incredible week at #SilviLaser2025 in Québec City 🌲🇨🇦

It was so inspiring to see the growing focus on multi-temporal LiDAR this year!

Huge thanks to the organizers for a seamless event. 🌳✨

Until next time in 2027, in Warsaw! #SilviLaser #Forests #LiDAR

📢 paper alert! Ever wondered if you can scan the forest faster with your RIEGL scanner without it impacting the structural metrics you extract from the trees? Find out here in a study lead by Tom Verhelst @qforestlab.bsky.social: www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/16...

Implications of Pulse Frequency in Terrestrial Laser Scanning on Forest Point Cloud Quality and Individual Tree Structural Metrics

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) provides highly detailed 3D information of forest environments but is limited to small spatial scales, as data collection is time consuming compared to other remote se...

🥂Yesterday I finished my PhD 🎓. I could have never done this without the support and trust I got from my promotors, fellow PhD students and everyone else at the lab and at home! ❤️ Thank you all! On to the next chapter! @kimcalders @Hans1Verbeeck @CAVElab_UGent

ForSe update 📢 We've scanned our 135m transect at the research forest of UGent in Gontrode 4 times now (9th of March, 9th of April, 6th and 24th of May). You can see the structure change when the leaves appear on the trees! #TLS @CAVElab_UGent @ForNaLab

📢Paper alert! Check out this paper which links forest edge structure (measured with TLS) with🐦sounds, by @tomverhe and co-authors.
