Terrestrial laser scanning point clouds acquired in the autumn of 2021 from 22 circular sample plots (r = 25 m) located in Evo, Finland. A Leica RTC 360 A 3D (Leica Geosystems, St. Gallen, Switzerland) time-of-flight laser scanner was used in the data acquisition. A multi-scan approach has been applied in the data acquisition, that is, each sample plot has been scanned from nine separate scanning locations: one scan from the plot centre and eight scans from quadrant directions (i.e. north, north-east, east, south-east, south, south-west, west, and north-west of the plot centre). Individual scans have been co-registered using artificial reference targets, height-normalized (Z-coordinates representing heights above the ground) and georeferenced into EUREF-FIN (epsg 3067) coordinate reference system.
