Abstract
We developed a tree/stand model that simulates light interception and photosynthesis of first-order branches individuals, and a stand. The architecture of modelled trees was generated using tree skeletons (a main trunk and basal part of first-order branches) extracted from terrestrial LiDAR data and some architectural rules to add foliage to branches.
