The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) instrument provides high resolution laser ranging of Earth's forests and topography from the International Space Station (ISS).

Representational State Transfer (REST) services for Global Subsets Tool now replace Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) services.

Example subset of aboveground biomass density (AGBD; Mg ha-1) predictions from the GEDI Level-4A footprint version 2.1 product over Northern California, USA, spanning April to July 2019. GEDI footprints are spaced 60m along track and 600m across-track.

Gross primary production from FluxSat v2.0 expressed as carbon (g m-2 d-1) for July 1st, 2019.

The GEDI instrument onboard the ISS uses three lasers split into eight tracks that fire 242 times per second illuminating a 25-meter footprint of the Earth's surface.
