NSF NEON WORKSHOP: TOPOGRAPHIC, GEOMORPHIC, AND VEGETATION ANALYSIS WITH LIDAR

[Melanie Colón]

This 3-day course taught by OpenTopography and NEON lidar experts will
consist of lectures and labs on topographic, geomorphic, and vegetation
analysis with lidar point clouds and derived products. The course will
utilize NEON data and attendees will have the opportunity to bring their
own datasets for analysis. This workshop is part of a series of NSF/NEON
supported training on the use of datasets from the NEON Airborne
Observing Platform to enable new discoveries in the biophysical research
community.
