Model description

This static 3-D model of tobacco plant is built based on leaf surface geometry (collected by 3-D scanning) and leaf outline (obtained by digitizing in situ). The parameters describing plant architecture are derived and light absorption and potential photosynthesis of individual leaves as well as plants are calculated utilizing 3-D modeling.
