But please remember, the dataset is not final... Anyway here is the very introduction of GEDI on EE (or my feedback to the amazing Google Earth Engine team, with many thanks!) pic.twitter.com/PKZRz2QGdV

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>#GEDI tips: RH stands for 'relative height,' shown in m or cm, calculated at the percentage of cumulative waveform energy. So, RH100 means elev_highestreturn - elev_lowestmode

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>#GEDI tips: "The lowest selected mode has triggered on noise, thus elev_lowestmode will be below the actual ground surface" (Level 02 User Guide), indicating that RH100 would overestimate the height https://t.co/cUGSpUfhWv

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>#GEDI tips: GEDI produces 8 tracks of data. Half of them are by full power lasers. Use the data from these power beams if your area has dense forests. The power beam sensitivities are 2-3% higher than the coverage beam
