ATLAS/ICESat-2 L3A Land and Vegetation Height Quick Look V006

Description

ATL08QL is the quick look version of ATL08. Once final ATL08 files are available the corresponding ATL08QL files will be removed. ATL08 contains along-track heights above the WGS84 ellipsoid (ITRF2014 reference frame) for the ground and canopy surfaces. The canopy and ground surfaces are processed in fixed 100 m data segments, which typically contain more than 100 signal photons. The data were acquired by the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) instrument on board the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) observatory.
