The impact of geolocation uncertainty on GEDI tropical forest canopy height estimation and change monitoring

open access: yesScience of Remote Sensing, 2021
The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) LiDAR provides new spaceborne vegetation canopy structural information including relative canopy height products defined with respect to 25 m diameter footprints. The GEDI geolocation requirement is that

Intercomparison of the DART model and GEDI simulator for simulating GEDI waveforms in forests

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
The launch of GEDI opens a new era of forest structure monitoring using full-waveform LiDAR from space. Simulation of GEDI waveform is of great importance for the algorithm design and forest structure metric estimation.

Multi-resolution gridded maps of vegetation structure from GEDI. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Data
Large-extent maps of three-dimensional vegetation structure are important for understanding the hydrologic cycle, climate, carbon fluxes, and habitat. We aggregated over 7 billion lidar shots from the Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) to produce analysis-ready, gridded rasters of 36 vegetation structure metrics at three spatial resolutions

Accuracy Assessment and Impact Factor Analysis of GEDI Leaf Area Index Product in Temperate Forest

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The leaf area index (LAI) is a vital parameter for quantifying the material and energy exchange between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere. The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI), with its mission to produce a near-global map of forest

Spaceborne LiDAR for characterizing forest structure across scales in the European Alps

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, 2023
The launch of NASA's Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) mission in 2018 opens new opportunities to quantitatively describe forest ecosystems across large scales. While GEDI's height‐related metrics have already been extensively evaluated, the

GeDi: Generative Discriminator Guided Sequence Generation [PDF]

open access: yesFindings of the Association for Computational Linguistics: EMNLP 2021, 2021
While large-scale language models (LMs) are able to imitate the distribution of natural language well enough to generate realistic text, it is difficult to control which regions of the distribution they generate. This is especially problematic because datasets used for training large LMs usually contain significant toxicity, hate, bias, and negativity.

Using simulated GEDI waveforms to evaluate the effects of beam sensitivity and terrain slope on GEDI L2A relative height metrics over the Brazilian Amazon Forest

open access: yesScience of Remote Sensing, 2023
The vertical structure of forests provides important parameters for estimating aboveground biomass (AGB) and it can be measured by lidar sensors. The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) full-waveform lidar sensor collects data systematically ...
