Data from spaceborne light detection and r … Data from spaceborne light detection and ranging (lidar) opens the possibility to map forest vertical structure globally. Presented here is a wall-to-wall, global map of canopy height at 1-km spatial resolution, using 2005 data from the Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) aboard ICESat (Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite).Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite). +
