Dataset for assessing amazon rainforest regrowth with GEDI and ICESat-2 data

This dataset includes GEDI data, ICESat-2 data, auxiliary data, and intermediate results necessary to reproduce results in Milenkovic et al. 2022. The code required to process the data is on: https://github.com/MilutinMM/SecFor-Regrowth.git.
