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 201311- 201406. The data includes topobathy data with points classified by target type (e.g. ground, water, etc). The final classified LiDAR data were then used to create topobathymetric DEMs in IMG format with 1m pixel size using ground points. The full project consists of 2,775 square miles along the Atlantic Coast from New York to South Carolina, or 41,388 - 500 m x 500 m lidar tiles. These tiles have been combined into 140 larger blocks. The data collection and processing was funded by post-Sandy supplemental funds. While Sandy was considered an extra-tropical storm when it struck, the word hurricane is in this sentence for search purposes.
