Definition of lidar. : a device that is similar in operation to radar but emits pulsed laser light instead of microwaves.
Remote sensing supports carbon estimation, allowing the upscaling of field measurements to large extents. Lidar is considered the premier instrument to estimate above ground biomass, but data are expensive and collected on-demand, with limited spatial and temporal coverage.
