CHM: Canopy Height Model from NASA Goddard's LiDAR Hyperspectral and Thermal (G-LiHT)

Description

Canopy Height Model (CHM) from NASA Goddard's LiDAR Hyperspectral and Thermal (G-LiHT; Cook et al. 2013) Airborne Imager over a subset of Harvard Forest Simes Tract, MA, collected in Summer 2012.

The CHM matrix columns are longitude, latitude, and canopy height (m) from ground for 17,23,137 observations. Longitude and latitude are in UTM Zone 18 (proj4string "+proj=utm +zone=18 +datum=WGS84 +units=m +no_defs +ellps=WGS84 +towgs84=0,0,0").
