Use of navigation satellite signals to determine stocks of stem wood

Abstract

The method for determining the stocks of stem wood using the measurement data of the linear attenuation coefficients of signals navigation satellites L1 range and general taxometric characteristics of the forest is presented. A variant of determining the stocks of stem wood by differences in contributions to the attenuation by layers of crowns and trunks is considered, taking into account the coordinate referencing of the trajectory of the probe signal in the tree stand.
