## About The Project

Tools for deriving ground and canopy elevation from raw ATL03 ICESat-2 returns from NASA's ATLAS sensor.

Workflow employed for this study:
![CanopyWorkflow](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aboestpetersen/icesat2_canopy_heights/main/images/ground_detection.png "canopy_workflow")

Comparison of resolutions (user can change output resolution):
![ResolutionCompare](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/aboestpetersen/icesat2_canopy_heights/main/images/res_compare.png "resolution_compare")
