Functions in leafR (0.3.5)

pointsByZSlice

Count number of points in each Z slice
LAHV

Leaf Area Height Volume metric
lai.raster

Produce a raster map of LAI. The resolution of the raster depends of grain.size choosed on lad.voxel() funtion.
k.coefficient

Calculate k coefficient provided a known real LAI and the calculated LAI
GC

Gini coefficient of foliage structural diversity
lad.profile

This function calculate the lad profile from the input lad.voxels
lad.voxels

Creates a data frame of the 3D voxels information (xyz) with Leaf Area Density values from las file
FHD

Foliage Height Diversity
lidar_example.laz

lidar_example.laz included raw data
GS

Gini-Simpson index of foliage structural diversity
lai

calculates the lead area index (LAI)
