Abstract
Our computer modeling technique reproduces a tree's 3D volume and skeleton from instrumented photographs. The technique involves first constructing the skeleton (trunk and the major branches) of the tree, and then applying an L-system starting from this skeleton. L-systems are one of the better known procedural models in the graphics community, especially after their popularization by P. Prusinkiewicz and A. Lindenmayer (1990).Keywords
