Input Data Boundary Outlines for DEMs of the North-Central California Coast (DEM_source_data.shp)
Description
A GIS polygon shapefile outlining the boundaries of the native input datasets used to construct a
seamless, 2-meter resolution digital elevation model (DEM) was constructed for the open-coast
region of the San Francisco Bay Area (outside of the Golden Gate Bridge), extending from Half Moon
Bay to Bodega Head along the North-central California coastline. The goal was to integrate the most
recent high-resolution bathymetric and topographic datasets available (for example, Light Detection
and Ranging (lidar) topography, multibeam and single-beam sonar bathymetry) into a seamless surface
model extending offshore at least 3 nautical miles and inland beyond the +20 m elevation contour.
