Description

This dataset contains the Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) canopy metrics of relative height 98th percentile (RH98), fractional canopy cover (COV), and foliage height diversity (FHD), extended wall-to-wall at a 30-m resolution for the Great Kruger National Park region of South Africa for 2007-2010 and 2015-2022. These data were created by modeling a sample of the GEDI Level 2B Canopy Cover and Vertical Profile Metrics at the 25- m footprint level with wall-to-wall spatial datasets including Landsat, PALSAR, topography derived from NASADEM and estimated soils data from iSDAsoil. The data are suitable for analyzing single time and change in woody canopy structure over areas of interest within the savanna ecosystems of the region.
