"# Estimating Aboveground Biomass in a Protected Area using GEDI L4A dataset\n",
"\n",
"## Overview\n",
"The [Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) L4A Footprint Level Aboveground Biomass Density (AGBD)](https://doi.org/10.3334/ORNLDAAC/2056) dataset provides predictions of the aboveground biomass density (AGBD; in Mg/ha) and estimates of the prediction standard error within each sampled geolocated GEDI footprint. GEDI L4A dataset is available for the period starting 2019-04-17 and covers 52 N to 52 S latitudes. GEDI L4A data files are natively in HDF5 format.\n",
"\n",
"This tutorial will demonstrate how to directly access and subset the GEDI L4A dataset using [NASA's Harmony Services](https://harmony.earthdata.nasa.gov/) and compute summary of aboveground biomass for a protected area in Mexico. The Harmony API allows seamless access and production of analysis-ready Earth observation data across different DAACs, by enabling cloud-based spatial, temporal, and variable subsetting and data conversions. The GEDI L4A dataset is available from the Harmony API. \n",

"## Learning Objectives\n",
"- Use [NASA's Harmony Services](https://harmony.earthdata.nasa.gov/) to retrieve the GEDI L4A dataset. The Harmony API allows access to selected variables for the dataset within the spatial-temporal bounds without having to download the whole data file.\n",
"- Compute summaries of AGBD across various plant functional types (PFTs) in the study area.\n",
