Statistical properties of hybrid estimators proposed for GEDI—NASA’s global ecosystem dynamics investigation

NASA’s Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) mission will collect waveform lidar data at a dense sample of ∼25 m footprints along ground tracks paralleling the orbit of the International Space Station (ISS). GEDI’s primary science deliverable will be a 1 km grid of estimated mean abovegroun...
