2019 NOAA NGS Topobathy Lidar: U.S. Virgin Islands

Description

These data were collected by Leading Edge Geomatics using a Riegl VQ-880-G II sensor. The data acqusition began January 20, 2019 through June 2, 2019. The data includes topobathy data in LAS 1.4 format classified as created, never classified (0); unclassified (1); ground (2); noise (7); bathymetric bottom (40); water surface (41); derived water surface (42); submerged object, not otherwise specified (e.g., wreck, rock, submerged piling) (43); International Hydrographic Organization S-57 object, not otherwise specified (44); no bottom found (bathymetric lidar point for which no detectable bottom return was received) (45); bathymetic bottom temporal changes (46) in accordance with project specifications.
