Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: A first-of-its-kind global map shows forest canopy height in shades of green from 0 to 70 meters (230 feet). For any patch of forest, the height shown means that 90 percent or more of the trees in the patch are that tall or taller. Created from data taken by NASA satellites ICESat, Terra and Aqua.
