Notes
|
The Airborne LIDAR Assessment of Coastal Erosion (ALACE) project was a
partnership between NOAA, NASA, and U.S. Geological Survery (USGS). It has been
collecting baseline coastal topographic data for the conterminous U.S. since
1996. NOAA left the partnership after the fall 2000 season, but USGS and NASA
continue to collect data for research purposes. This data may eventually be
available via LDART. The ALACE collections are typically targeted at a narrow
strip of sandy beach and are usually a kilometer or less in width. Many areas
have both baseline data and post-storm data. In general, this data has not been
checked with ground control, but has undergone internal consistency checks.
