Middle American Research Institute Brown Bag Talk Series: “G-LiHT" and Other Lidar Data a Closer Look at Classic Lowland Maya Settlement

Since 2020, the MARI-GISLAB team has been focusing on the so-called G-LiHT lidar dataset, published by NASA in 2013.

Particularly surprising to us was the lack of dense urban zones and the high frequency of agricultural terraces, according to those studies.
