Retrieving building height in urban areas using ICESat-2 photon-counting LiDAR data

Building height is a pivotal factor in studying urban form and understanding the impacts of the vertical characteristics of urban areas on the environment. The Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) employ photon-counting LiDAR to collect Earth’s surface elevation data globally. Howev...
