Reviewer 2 Report

- This study digitized the harvested area using UAV and total station. - This study is meaningful for precise monitoring of the target site. - But I can't find anything new in the study. A lot of research on the number of GCPs required to obtain a high RMSE in a specific space has been conducted in the past. - Even if the results derived from the target site are applied to other logging areas as they are, there are many things to consider. - It is recommended to conduct research from a monitoring perspective by continuously establishing DEM and DSM in the area.

Reviewer 3 Report

Dear Authors,

the paper seems to be an empirical comparative study of three different technologies, the performance of which is already known from the operating specifications, ar reported. The study lack in originality and an adequate proposed methodology. Therefore, I believe it does not fit the standard of the journal and you should consider it for a different editorial placement.
