    Learn from experts and make beautiful maps using ArcGIS Pro.

    Once, only cartographers made maps. Today, anyone can. Still, cartographers can teach people to make better maps, just as chefs can show people how to prepare better meals. With coaching from accomplished cartographers and practical, hands-on exercises, you'll become a smarter mapmaker, ready to go beyond the defaults and produce engaging maps that communicate with impact.

    This just in from the University of Hawaii at Manoa's Department of Geography & Environment:  HawaiiView is pleased to release the 30-m spatial resolution forest height map for the island of Oahu (https://hawaiiview.org/data/l2fhm/), predicted using Landsat-8 cloud-free mosaic and calibrated using airborne lidar data. 

    The forest height map is unique in that 1) it is continuous, instead of categorical (e.g., the existing USGS products), and 2) it was calibrated using massive airborne lidar data. 

    Feedback on the dataset is sought, please contact Professor Qi Chen at qichen@hawaii.edu
