A-1-02-WA map of where navigation equipment operated

Information Specialist
Lynne Dingerson, NOAA
Equipment Used
LIDAR
Purpose
The elevation data will be used to investigate the impacts of invasive species on the local ecology.
Notes
As part of an examination of the impacts of invasive Spartina
alternaflora in Willapa Bay, Washington, the Center contracted LIDAR
collection for the bay during lower low-water conditions.

The data cover an area of approximately 10 miles east-west by

20 miles north-south and was collected in the spring of 2002.

A licensed land surveyor conducted an independent ground truth

survey on relatively flat bare ground around the bay.
