This dataset contains raw instrument data and ancillary data for numerous sites across northern and eastern Australia from 2012 onwards. Scans have been collected using two Riegl VZ400 waveform recording TLS instruments. One is co-owned and operated by the Remote Sensing Centre, Queensland Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation (DETSI) and the TERN Brisbane Node, University of Queensland. The second is owned and operated by Wageningen University, Netherlands. remote sensing science vegetation cover JRSRP Field Data Portal documentDigital Data can be accessed from https://field.jrsrp.com/ by selecting the combinations Field, Ground Lidar.
