Description
These data were collected by NOAA using a Riegl VQ-880-G sensor. The data were acquired March 29, 2018 through May 25, 2018. The data include topobathymetric lidar data in LAS 1.4 format classified as created unclassified (1); ground (2); noise (7); bathymetric point (40); water surface (41); submerged object, not otherwise specified (43); water column (45); in accordance with project specifications. The project consists of approximately 518 square miles of data in Chesapeake Bay, Virginia. This dataset contains 1,527 1000 m x 1000 m lidar tiles.
