Description

Mean canopy Tree Height for the Amazon Forest on the period 2020-2024 at 4.78 m of spatial resolution. Created using a deep learning model on high-resolution Planet imagery from the Norway's International Climate and Forest Initiative (NICFI) Satellite Data Program.

Data: Geotiff raster files containing values from 0 to 254. The height values in the raster are scaled by a factor of 2.5. You need to divide the values by 2.5 to get the height in meters.
