2014 NOAA OCS Topobathy Lidar: New Jersey (H12606)

Description

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has the statutory mandate to collect hydrographic data in support of nautical chart compilation for safe navigation and to provide background data for engineers, scientific, and other commercial and industrial activities. Hydrographic survey data primarily consist of water depths, but may also include features (e.g. rocks, wrecks), navigation aids, shoreline identification, and bottom type information. David Evans and Associates, Inc. (DEA), in conjunction with Geomatics Data Solutions and Quantum Spatial, Inc., conducted hydrographic lidar survey operations along the New Jersey coast, from Barnegat Bay to Hereford Inlet. Survey H12606 was conducted in accordance with the Statement of Work, Hydrographic Lidar Surveying Services (SOW), June 2013 and Hydrographic Survey Project Instructions, June 18, 2013 for OPR-C308-KRL-13. Nine potential survey areas were identified, however, only three areas were surveyed. Areas 1, 2, and 6 were selected. Data were collected from April 1 - 3, 2014 using the Chiroptera Lidar system.
