GEDI

GEDI—launched in 2018—is attached to the ISS and investigates global ecosystems¹.

We currently only support the L2A product (at version 2).

See their website.

Use GEDI.Quality with filter or in an operation pipeline to apply the full algorithm-aware L2A quality criteria used by points(g; filtered=true). Apply GEDI.Sensitivity afterwards to retain returns above a sensitivity threshold.
