The objective this study is to evaluate the spatial variation of tree heights at different spatial scales in areas of the city of Recife, Brazil, using LiDAR remote sensing data. The LiDAR data were processed in the QT Modeler (Quick Terrain Modeler v. 8.0.2) software from Applied Imagery. The TreeVaW software was utilized to estimate the heights and crown diameters of trees. The results obtained for tree height were consistent with field measurements.  aRemote sensing  aÁrvore  aSensoriamento remoto  aAltura das árvores  aÁrea urbana  aTreeVaW  aVariação espacial1 aOLIVEIRA, T.
