Canopy palm cover across the Brazilian Amazon forests mapped with airborne LiDAR data and deep learning
Abstract The Amazon region in Brazil contains c. 5% of the palm species of the world. However, palm cover at macroecological scales has not yet been quantified in this biome. Here, we used high spatial resolution LiDAR data, acquired from 610 flightlines over the Brazilian Amazon, to map canopy palm...
