2014 NOAA Post-Sandy Topobathymetric Lidar: Void DEMs Rhode Island

Description

These lidar 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 20140717 - 20140809 in twenty two missions. The missions flown on 20140718, 20140719, 20140720, 20140721, 20140722, 20140723, 20140724, 20140725, 20140731, 20140806, and 20140807 represent the Low Water missions and the missions flown on 20140717, 20140718, 20140719, 20140722, 20140723, 20140725, 20140731, 20140801, 20140807, 20140808, and 20140809 represent the High Water (everything outside of MLLW tidal requirements) missions. The data includes topobathy data with points classified by target type (e.g. ground, water, etc). The original project consisted of approximately 100 square miles along the Atlantic Coast of Rhode Island. The full project including buffered area and all flightline coverage is approximately 205 square miles. The final classified lidar data were then used to create topobathymetric DEMs in IMG format with 1m pixel size using ground points. This dataset represents a contiguous area covering 2104 - 500 m x 500 m lidar tiles. This data referenced by the online linkage is the Void DEM data referenced in the processing steps. The void areas have not been interpolated. While Sandy was considered an extra-tropical storm when it struck, the word hurricane is in this sentence for search purposes.
