Description
This dataset contains point clouds of three-dimensional (3D) mangrove forest structure and volume collected from 10 sites in Everglades National Park, Florida. Data were collected during NASA CMS "Blueflux" campaigns in March 2022, October 2022, and March 2023. Products were acquired using a RIEGL VZ-400i terrestrial laser scanner (TLS). TLS is a non-destructive and quantitative method for in situ 3D forest structure measuring and monitoring. Data are provided in LAS (*.las) format.
