Digital surface, terrain, and canopy height models for Boise Basin Experimental Forest in 2018

This data publication contains three digital rasters with a spatial resolution of one meter: 1) a digital surface model (DSM), which represents the highest lidar return in each grid cell; 2) a digital terrain model (DTM), a representation of the ground surface with vegetation and other non-ground re...

Description
Summary:This data publication contains three digital rasters with a spatial resolution of one meter: 1) a digital surface model (DSM), which represents the highest lidar return in each grid cell; 2) a digital terrain model (DTM), a representation of the ground surface with vegetation and other non-ground returns removed; and 3) a canopy height model (CHM), a representation of the height of vegetation above the ground surface. Digital rasters were derived from lidar data that were acquired by the U.S. Geological Survey over Boise Basin Experimental Forest, Idaho, USA in 2018.<br>To provide a high-resolution representation of vegetation structure across Boise Basin Experimental Forest.
