GEDI parameters information.

Parameters name description Parameters name description
cover Total canopy cover, DEM Digital elevation model
fhd_normal Foliage Height Diversity index calculated by vertical foliage profifile normalized by total plant area index landsat_treecover Landsat tree canopy cover
leaf_off_doy Leaf off day of year leaf_on_doy Leaf on day of year
modis_treecover Percent tree cover from MODIS data modis_nonvegetated Percent non-vegetated from MODIS data
pai Total plant area index pgap_thea Estimated Pgap(theta) for the selected L2A algorithm.
rg Integral of the ground component in the RX waveform rh100 Height above ground of the received waveform signal start
rv Integral of the vegetation component in the RX waveform sensitivity Maximum canopy cover that can be penetrated considering the SNR of the waveform
degrad_flag Non-zero values indicate the shot occurred during a degraded period. A non-zero tens digit indicates degraded attitude, a non-zero ones digit indicates a degraded trajectory. quality_flag Flag simplifying selection of most useful data for Level 2B
