Vertical step in PAI profile

by jakeeckersley121 » Sun Jul 09, 2023 2:27 am America/New_York

Hello,

All documentation I have found for GEDI L2B v2 product (LARSE/GEDI/GEDI02_B_002 accessed via earth engine) so far, as well as the description on the product page (https://developers.google.com/earth-engine/datasets/catalog/LARSE_GEDI_GEDI02_B_002#description) refers to vertical steps (dZ) in the level 2b PAI and PAVD products as always being in 5m intervals.

Is there a script available for reducing/editing that step size? This would be incredibly useful for dryland ecosystems where vegetation rarely exceeds 5 m. I understand this can be built from equations 7, 9 + 10 from the ATBD, however i'm a little lost on where to find pv and pg grids used in the calculation.

Thanks in advance
Jake
