: Precision viticulture employs various sensors for assessing nondestructively key parameters in vineyards. One of the most promising technologies for this purpose is the laser scanner sensor. Laser scanner uses the LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) method for the calculation of the distance from the sensor. However, the number of cultivation operations affects the credibility of sensors such as the laser scanner. The main aim of this study was to assess a laser scanner sensor at different measurement settings for estimating pruning wood parameters on two wine grape cultivars (Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah) that received different numbers of farming interventions. The experiment was conducted in the two vineyards situated in the same farm for two successive years (2014 and 2015). The results indicated that the use of a laser scanner in the Syrah vineyard presented more accurate results (r = 0.966 in 2014 and r = 0.806 in 2015) when compared to the Sauvignon Blanc one (r = 0.839 in 2014 and r = 0.607 in 2015) regarding pruning wood parameters estimation. Different measurement settings and weather conditions had different effects on the accuracy of the sensor. It can be concluded that the laser scanner is a very helpful sensor for estimating pruning wood parameters in vineyards.
