We present a new set of multi-temporal lidar metrics of ecosystem structure derived from four national ALS (airborne laser scanning) surveys of the Netherlands (AHN1–AHN4), capturing vegetation height, cover, and structural variability over the last 2 decades (1998–2022). Around 70 TB point clouds have been processed to ready-to-use raster layers at 10 m resolution (~ 59 GB), enabling a wide use and uptake of ecosystem structure information in biodiversity and habitat monitoring and ecosystem and carbon dynamic modelling.
