Gedi

Gedi refers to a type of satellite imagery and analysis technology developed by NASA, specifically designed to measure forest height and structure. Using laser pulses, Gedi collects detailed information about tree canopies and the amount of carbon stored in forests. This technology helps scientists understand ecosystems better, monitor changes in forests, and assess their role in climate change. Gedi plays a key role in advancing our understanding of biodiversity and supporting conservation efforts by providing accurate data on forest health and composition.
