Registered point cloud and raw scan terrestrial lidar data for canopy structure studies at tree and plot levels of Caatinga vegetation, Brazil, 2017-2019

This dataset contains 3D Lidar scans representative for 0.5 ha permanent sample plots at Caatinga, Brazil. Two plots were located in Serra das Almas Reserve (SDA) and one plot in Petrolina (PET). The dataset also includes scans completed inside and outside for 10 individual trees. Scans were taken between July 2017 and May 2019.
