Resumen
Descripción
A close analysis of traditional geometries and volume equations in forest measurements lead usto propose the use of conic geometry by segments as an alternative method to approach the wholeform of any regular tree bole, log or bolt. The model is general and applies to any solid of revolutionand is supported on the truncated cone volume equation. It is called The Segmental Conic Model. Themodel accuracy depends on the number of segments and is exact in the limit when that number goesto infinity.
