Disclosed is a system and method for processing remote sensing data such as LiDAR return data prior to analyzing the data to detect planted items of vegetation such as trees. In one embodiment, LiDAR return data for an area in question is filtered to remove data that are not within a predetermined area of where trees have been planted. Planting data such as GPS data that is collected by tractors or other equipment records the location of where trees are planted. The planting data is used to filter the LiDAR return data by eliminating or ignoring LiDAR return data that are not within a buffer zone around the location where the trees have been planted. Once filtered, the LiDAR return data can be analyzed to detect trees or other items of interest in the remote sensing data. |
