  • Description: The canopy height model (CHM) represents area-wide tree canopy heights within the City of Dresden (Germany). The CHM provides spatially explicit information on urban forest structure enabling the assessment of the small-scale impacts of urban trees and strategically managing the ecosystem services they provide. The high-resolution raster layer has a cell size of 0.5 meter and maps the height of the upper crown layer above the underlying ground. The CHM was derived from a classification of the urban forest in a LiDAR point cloud using a data fusion approach combining LiDAR with multispectral imagery and a 3D building model. LiDAR data were acquired in 2017. The classification is described in detail in this article: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ufug.2022.127637. The raster is available as a single-band GeoTIFF in the coordinate system ETRS89/UTM zone 33 (EPSG: 25833).
