What is it about?
An early experiment of using RGB photography to estimate leaf area index in isolated trees and urban settings

Why is it important?
Two challenges are considered: i) single tree leaf area measurements are challenging because optical methods are most performing on stand level; ii) urban materials can affect the light measurements from optical instruments. We showed that visible-band vegetation indices from a customer grade camera can extract the greenness and avoid the influence of urban surrounding
