Airborne lidar scanning workflows

• USGS 3D Elevation Profile Forest Structure Metrics

  Workflow to process USGS 3DEP lidar point cloud data, generate and visualize Canopy Height Model (CHM), Digital Surface Model (DSM), Digital Terrain Model (DTM), and extract forest canopy metrics.

• NOAA Coastal Topographic Lidar Forest Structure Metrics

  Workflow to process NOAA Coastal Topographic lidar data, generate and visualize Canopy Height Model (CHM), Digital Surface Model (DSM), Digital Terrain Model (DTM), and extract forest canopy metrics.

Space-based remote sensing workflows

• Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) canopy height maps Beta

  Workflow estimates canopy height using Machine Learning and fusion of GEDI L2A Elevation and Height Metrics Data (Training Labels), Sentinel-2 L2A (Optical Imagery), Sentinel-1 Radiometrically Terrain Corrected (SAR Imagery) and Digital Elevation Model datasets (e.g. Copernicus GLO-30).
