    • 2014 NOAA Post Hurricane Sandy Topobathymetric LiDAR Mapping for Shoreline Mapping

    Metadata Updated: February 15, 2025

    These data were collected by the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration National Geodetic Survey Remote Sensing Division using a Riegl VQ820G system. The data were acquired from 20140108 - 20140522 in four missions. The missions flown on 20140108 and 20140109 represent Low Water missions and the missions flown on 20140516 and 20140522 represent High Water (everything outside of MLLW tidal requirements) missions. The data includes topobathy data in an LAS 1.2 format file classified as unclassified (1), ground (2), topo noise (7), refracted High Water data landward of the MLLW land/water interface (18), bathy noise (22), noise as defined by the sensor (23), refracted sensor noise (24), water column (25), bathymetric bottom or submerged topography (26), water surface (27), International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) S-57 objects (30), and temporal bathy bottom (31) in accordance with project specifications. Several of the noise classes were filtered out prior to distribution on the Digital Coast. The full project consists of 2,775 square miles along the Atlantic Coast from New York to South Carolina. This dataset represents a contiguous area covering a portion of acquisition block 1 to 140 with 500 m x 500 m lidar tiles.
