Description
Between 2016 and 2018, the EBA airborne missions (conducted by the Brazilian National Institute for Space Research (INPE) and funded by Amazon Fund) collected airborne lidar transects of 375 ha (12.5 x 0.3 km) each. A majority of the transects were flown over randomly selected locations of old growth and second growth as forests defined by the PRODES and TerraClass databases (PRODES, INPE, 2016; TerraClass, INPE, 2014). PRODES separates forests from non-forest while TerraClass identifies second growth forest and other land covers.
