Global Airborne Observatory: Forest Canopy Height and Carbon Stocks of Panama

Two maps are provided from a study of the Republic of Panama. The maps are based on airborne light detection and ranging (lidar) data, combined with satellite-based maps of forest cover and properties, acquired in 2012. The resulting maps are: (1) top of canopy height or TCH; and (2) aboveground carbon density or ACD. Units for TCH are meters above ground. Units for ACD are Mg C per hectare. Maps are provided at 1.0 ha spatial resolution. File format is GeoTIFF. Use of these data require citation of this dataset and the original journal paper that delivered the mapping method. These citations are as follows: Asner, G.P., J. Mascaro, C. Anderson, D.E. Knapp, R.E. Martin, T. Kennedy-Bowdoin, M. van Breugel, S. Davies, J.S. Hall, H.C. Muller-Landau, C. Potvin, W. Sousa, J.
