Automatic tree counting algorithms based upon image segments form the core of accessing yield per area unit in a standing stock. The Oject Based Image Analysis specifies unique transferable attributes of the crown ‘hotspot‘, which spatial characteristics are encounter over a wide range of aerial photographs, orthophoto‘s and satellite imagery. With high quality data, including LiDAR height information, a new large scale yield estimation can take place using semi and/or full automatic procedures. The method was tested on two large test area‘s after development on a variety of data sets within the laboratory of RS and GIS at the faculty of forestry in Cracow
