This landscape dataset was built using Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data with full resolution (1 arc sec ~ 30m). This map aims at evaluating the geodiversity of natural areas. Twelve landscape types into 5 main categories have been identied with respect to Migon's typology (2006): the coastal plains landscapes (AA. AB. AC); the typical multi-convex landscapes (B. I. J); the multi-concave and joint-valley landscapes (C.D); the more or less dissected plateau (E.F.G) and the all-slopes topography (H). The map was produced at the request of the French Guianan public forest manager of the Office National des Forêts (ONF).

One aerial photograph (IGNF_PVA_1-0__1969-09-18__C92PHQ5671_1968_GUY19P_0139) acquired by Institut Géographique National (IGN). The image covers the area around Diane and Malmanoury in French Guiana. We used the image for the project "Feasibility study of the implementation of forest firewalls on the Guyanese Space Center".

The aerial laser scanning (ALS) dataset, acquired in 2004, covers three plots of Counami site in French Guiana. The laser recorded last reflected pulse. Ground points data where not delivered by ALTOA.

The aerial laser scanning (ALS) dataset, acquired between 6 and 7 April 2009, covers the experimental station Paracou in French Guiyana. More precisely, the dataset covers 9 plots totally (Paracou 4, Paracou 5, Paracou 7, Paracou 8, Paracou 9 - Paracou 12, and Paracou 14) and 4 plots partly (Paracou 3, Paracou 6, Paracou 13, and Paracou 15). The area includes exploited and non-exploited forest and Pinot palm. Ground control points are available. The Lidar data was acquired as part of the Guyafor project. It was previoulsy made available to the ESA Tropisar project. The Biomass project at Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) used this dataset for the evaluation of forest structure estimation from radar data.
