Data offered docs-verified: canopy height raster (native ~1.19 m COGs) · tile index (tiles.parquet) · static STAC catalogue (stac-geoparquet items) · global overview COG (z0–9) · multiscale GeoZarr pyramid (1x–64x)
Coverage docs-verified: Global
Resolution docs-verified: Native ~1.19 m at the equator; GeoZarr overviews at 8x (~9.6 m) and 64x (~76 m)
Formats docs-verified: GeoTIFF (COG) · GeoParquet · STAC (stac-geoparquet) · GeoZarr (Icechunk) · CSV-free tabular via DuckDB/Parquet readers
Access docs-verified: Free, public, anonymous HTTPS/S3 access with no credentials; licence CC-BY-4.0

Use cases llm-inferred: Canopy height baseline for ecological constraints on a site AOI · Tree and woodland height screening for civils route or scheme corridors · Canopy height layer for BNG habitat baseline mapping
Audience llm-inferred: ecologists · GIS analysts · planners · civils engineers · hydrologists

Constraints docs-verified: Pixel value 0 is both true-zero and no-data, with no explicit nodata mask · Full chm/ dataset is ~23.8 TB, so AOI-based reads are needed · No accuracy or validation statistics are stated in the docs; verify against local survey before use · Model-derived product; not a survey-grade height dataset
