Provides tools for downloading, reading, processing, visualizing,
and exporting NASA's ICESat-2 ATL03 (Global Geolocated Photon
Data) and ATL08 (Land and Vegetation Height) products. Supports
photon- and segment-level analysis, spatial sampling, gridding,
statistical and machine-learning modeling, and integration with
'Google Earth Engine' (<https://earthengine.google.com/>) for
wall-to-wall mapping of vegetation structure and other land
attributes.
