This product provides a 30-m spatial elaboration of GEDI footprint-level L2A V2.0, L2B V.0, and L4A V2.1 products. You can access the data and user guide through NASA Earthdata here! Figure [...]

GEDI data products are available at different resolutions and time intervals. Data latency times (that is the time lag between when data are acquired and when a particular product is available) are given below. The data latency depends on the level of the data product. Lower level data products (L1 [...]

“Scientists from Jody Vogeler’s lab at Colorado State University, for instance, are leading an ongoing NASA-funded project aimed at assessing rewilding-driven changes and helping wildlife managers and policymakers use remote sensing to support decision-making in the region. As part of the effort, the researchers published a draft study in summer [...]

GEDI launched on SpaceX-16 on December 5th, 2018, from Cape Canaveral. GEDI was then extracted from the Dragon capsule’s trunk by the ISS’s robotic arms and passed along the length of the space station to the Japanese Experiment Module – Exposed Facility (JEM-EF), where it was attached to power, coolant [...]
