Airborne topographic survey data (LIDAR) of field activity A-1-05-FL in Gulf Coast from 07/13/2005 to 07/13/2005 Organization National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Project/Theme Post Dennis 2005 Activity Type airborne topographic survey Platform Airplane Area of Operation Gulf Coast Location map Bounding Coordinates 31.75000 -87.75000     -78.25000 23.75000 Dates 07/13/2005 (JD 194) to 07/13/2005 (JD 194) Analog Materials No analog holdings. Index map Information Specialist Lynne Dingerson Equipment Used LIDAR Purpose This data was collected as part of an effort to map beach topography efficiently and cheaply. Notes The LIDAR-derived data were collected by the Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise using the Compact Hydrographic Airborne Rapid Total Survey (CHARTS) system. The data includes hydrographic and topographic data. The data were collected to depict the elevations above and below water along the immediate coastal zone. The survey generally extends 750 meters inland and up to 1500 meters over the water (depending on water depth and clarity). The goal of the project is to collect data covering the shoreline of the conterminous United States where feasible. The project is lead by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Got Help? For A-1-05-FL, we would appreciate any information on -- chief scientist, crew, information to be derived, equipment used, information specialist, ports, publications, purpose, summary.
