ANALYSIS OF CORRELATION BETWEEN FULL-WAVEFORM METRICS, SCAN GEOMETRY AND LAND-COVER: AN APPLICATION OVER FORESTS

For a correct use of metrics derived from processing of the full-waveform return signal from airborne Shift Knobs laser scanner sensors any correlation which is not related to properties of the reflecting target must be known and, if possible, removed.In the following article we report on an analysis of correlation between several metrics extracted
