    • 2003-2005 South Carolina Oyster Mapping Orthoimagery

    Metadata Updated: April 15, 2024

    Data set contains digital orthophotography. The digital orthophotos in this series have a theoretical ground resolution of 0.25 meter. The digital orthophotos are 4-band in nature (red, green, blue, near infrared) and are delivered as flown in four-band .img file format. The four-band imagery is delivered in mosaics equaling one eighth of a DOQ. The data set presents information that represents current conditions for the specified DOQQ regions of interest as specified by PhotoScience Task No. 01012C0053 for coastal areas of South Carolina. The project area was selected specifically to cover those sections of the South Carolina coastal critical zone where oysters had historically been mapped by SCDNR. The extent of the DOQQs for the project area range from the Hilton Head area in the southern part of South Carolina to the Myrtle Beach area in the northern part of the state. All data were captured during specific imaging windows per contract. These imaging windows are 6-10-03 through 6-16-03, 7-9-03 through 7-15-03, 7-30 through 7-31-03, 8-8-03 through 8-13-03, 8-27-03 through 8-29-03, 9-25-03 through 9-26-03, 10-24-03 5-2-04 through 5-6-04, 5-16-04 through 5-18-04, 5-31-04 through 6-5-04, 6-28-04 through 7-4-04, 7-28-04 through 8-2-04, 4-4-05 through 4-11-05, and 5-4-05 through 5-8-05. The total DOQQ area is approximately 1,527 square miles. Original contact information: Contact Org: NOAA Office for Coastal Management Phone: 843-740-1202 Email: coastal.info@noaa.gov
