Figure 6. Determination of parameters from shoots point clouds.

Caption

(a) The shoot length was calculated by summing the distances between neighboring points after skeletonization of the shoot point cloud. (b) The shoot angle was determined based on the inclination of the minimum enclosing box surrounding the shoot. (c) The volume of the canopy was calculated using the method of the minimum convex hull, which approximates the spatial boundary of the shoot.
