Photogrammetric digital surface models and orthoimagery for the continuous coastline, Wales to Platinum, Alaska, segment I: Newtok to Nightmute

Metadata Updated: July 5, 2023

Aerial photographs of the coastline from Newtok to Nightmute were collected on May 7, 2016. The photographs were processed using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) photogrammetric techniques. Global Positioning System (GPS) checkpoints were collected via a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) survey conducted between August 15 and September 14, 2015. For the purposes of open access to elevation and orthoimagery datasets in coastal regions of Alaska, this collection is being released as a Raw Data File with an open end-user license. Orthoimages contain 4-band, 8-bit, unsigned raster data (red/green/blue/no data; file format-GeoTIFF; source-Fairbanks Fodar) with 20 cm GSD. No-data values are found in band 4 or shown as transparent in red/green/blue images. The file employs Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW) compression. Light exposures in the orthoimages are a result of daily weather conditions, which ranged from low cloud cover, rain, and full sun.
