Description

This dataset is a pre-nourishment digital elevation model (DEM) of the beach topography of Minnesota Point near the Duluth Entry of Lake Superior, Duluth, Minnesota. The DEM has a 1-meter (m; 3.28084 feet) cell size and was created from a LAS dataset of terrestrial light detection and ranging (lidar) data representing the beach topography. Lidar data were collected June 24, 2021, using a boat mounted Velodyne VLP-16 unit. Methodology similar to Wagner, D.M., Lund, J.W., and Sanks, K.M., 2020 was used.
