🚀 HAPPY LAUNCH DAY #GEDI! 🚀
GEDI launched on SpaceX-16 on December 5th, 2018, from Cape Canaveral. Since then, each laser has fired over 15 billion shots!

@GEDI_Knights I'm happy to say the #saveGEDI petition asking @RepSherrill to publicly support extending GEDI has reached 23k+ people with 2.3k+ signatures and 275+ shares! Let's build on this momentum for the #science that makes #climatesolutions possible! change.org/saveGEDI2022

What can you do for the climate today? Sign and share this petition to keep @GEDI_Knights operational - the #LIDAR sensor from the @ISS_Research that monitors the world's forests.

#GEDIvis @GEDI_Knights Here my modest app to visualize #GEDI data in Colombia: a) individual shoots, b) aggregated by ecosystem, c) on a geographical and dimensional space, and d) on 3D plot in reference to a veg height map by a college: 🧵👇 http://13.92.29.109:3838/gedivis

d). Clip a raster height veg map of Colombia (in prep for a friend, not my map) and then see on a 3D plot how GEDI points are located in reference to the map. Click where GEDI points exist using the orbits layer (red and blue) #GEDIvis @GEDI_Knights
