Abstract
- • The development and presentation of forest digital twin (FDT). • The forest digital twin is feasible in two-way forest management practices. • A focus on how human–computer interaction enhances FDT performance. • Decision-making feedback could develop the potentiality of FDT. Existing forest digitization studies focus on one-way forest management practice visualization simulation, lacking decision-making feedback and virtual-real interaction synchronization. This paper presents the vision of the forest digital twin paradigm. We construct a forest digital twin to explore a new digital carrier of forest resources using remote sensing data, forest inventory data, the Cesium Digital Earth Engine, forest planning theory and parametric 3D modeling technology. The two-way interaction and thinning experiments showed that the forest digital twin could provide a novel pattern for in-depth analysis of forest spatial structure, individual tree dynamic growth and human-digital twin interaction effects. The successful recognition rate in matching the forest structure seen on real forest structure images with the forest digital scene was 91.3%, indicating that the forest digital twin can characterize the real forest structure significantly. The prediction accuracy of the multi-grade growth model integrating the Bayesian method for DBH, H was more than 90.4%. In addition, ASS-FDT interaction is superior to the assessors (ASS) and forest digital twin (FDT) for stand spatial structure overall optimization. The multi-dimensional stand spatial structure index (F-index) increased by 22.82%. The constructed forest digital twin model shows superior performance in optimizing the stand growth model and enhancing the overall stand spatial structure under the decision-making feedback and real-time interaction strategies. The automatic operation pattern provides a user-friendly forest management practice solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
