2017 Puerto Rico G-LiHT Metadata

This data package contains metadata for data acquired for sample transects across Puerto Rico using NASA Goddard's Lidar, Hyperspectral, and Thermal (G-LiHT) Airborne Imager in March 2017. Flights specifically targeted sites with coincident field data collection for NGEE-Tropics, existing forest inventory plots from the USDA-Forest Service Forest Inventory & Analysis (FIA) program and university collaborators, and other research installations (e.g., NEON). This dataset was originally published on the NGEE Tropics Archive and is being mirrored on ESS-DIVE for long-term archival Acknowledgement: Data were acquired with funding from the Department of Energy (DOE) Next Generation Ecosystem Experiment (NGEE) Tropics and NASA's Fluorescence Airborne Research Experiment (FLARE)
