Effect of vegetation cover on ALS data (National Geographic Institute, Government of Spain) corresponding to the case study area in “La Pedriza” (Madrid, Spain). a Elevation profile from ALS considering all the ALS points (up), only the points classified as terrain (middle), and only the points classified as vegetation (bottom). The number of ALS points giving information on the terrain surface decreases in the areas with more vegetation. Effect of vegetation on a DEM considering all the ALS points (b) and only the points classified as terrain surface (c). The red line corresponds to topographic profiles in (a)
