Data:
The data basis for modelling comprises data from Synthetic-Aperture-Radar (SAR) from Sentinel-1, multispectral Information from Sentinel-2 and LiDAR (Light detection and ranging) data from GEDI. All data has been filtered to the period of the dry season 2019 (April to September).

Processing:
GEDI data has been preprocessed (quality and temporal filtering) on a local machine (16 GB RAM). Sentinel preprocessing (Sentinel-1: radiometric terrain normalization and speckle filtering; Sentinel-2 cloud masking, vegetation indices, temporal-spectral metrics) and modelling has been fully conducted in Google Earth Engine using the Python API.

Quality Assurance:
Cover: Modeling accuracy for total canopy cover amounts to: 61.4 % in R² (coefficient of determination) and 9.1 % in RMSE (root mean square error).
Fhdi: Modeling accuracy for Foliage height diversity index amounts to: 48,0 % in R² (coefficient of determination) and 0,3 in RMSE (root mean square error).
Pai: Modeling accuracy for Plant area index amounts to: 50,6 % in R² (coefficient of determination) and 0,3 in RMSE (root mean square error).
rh95 Modeling accuracy for canopy height amounts to: 64,0 % in R² (coefficient of determination) and 1,6 m in RMSE (root mean square error).</gco:CharacterString>
