In case you missed it, Dr. Ralph Dubayah and Dr. Laura Duncanson were guests on the Eyes on Earth podcast.   Eyes on Earth is a podcast on remote sensing, Earth observation, land change and science, brought to you by the USGS Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center. In this episode, we learn about the purpose of the GEDI mission on the International Space Station and what is being learned from it.  The NASA Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center (LP DAAC) at EROS provides storage and distribution of GEDI data. In this episode, we’ll take a look at the purpose of the GEDI mission, how the instrument works, and how GEDI data are being used to understand things like carbon dynamics in forests.
