The data span more than two decades and were collected using many different sensors. The collection includes data from topographic and bathymetric lidar sensors. Data are available for all of the coastal states and range from shoreline strips to full county coverage. The products have been delivered to the Center in various formats, projections, datums, and units. Once received, the data are reviewed, checked for errors, and standardized to LAZ format, geographic coordinates and ellipsoid heights in meters. Data are on a NAD83 or ITRF realization depending upon the collection specifics. Lidar data is used to study the surface of the earth for elevation, erosion, inundation, flooding, and coastal hazards applications. onGoing NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information pointOfContact NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 2234 South Hobson Ave Charleston SC 29405-2413 coastal.info@noaa.gov https://coast.noaa.gov WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Office for Coastal Management Website NOAA Office for Coastal Management Home Page information custodian asNeeded EARTH SCIENCE > LAND SURFACE > TOPOGRAPHY > TERRAIN ELEVATION EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > BATHYMETRY/SEAFLOOR TOPOGRAPHY > BATHYMETRY > COASTAL BATHYMETRY theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 Elevation Theme NGDA National Geospatial Data Asset NGDAID37 theme NGDA Portfolio Themes CONTINENT > NORTH AMERICA > UNITED STATES OF AMERICA place Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Location Keywords 20.8 LIDAR > Light Detection and Ranging instrument Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Instrument Keywords 17.2 Airplane > Airplane platform Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Platform Keywords 17.2 DOC/NOAA/NOS/OCM > Office of Coastal Management, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.

Not all datasets in this collection are in EPT format. In particular, most topobathy datasets are not because EPT does not properly represent the classification numbers used for bathymetry points in the ASPRS LAS topobathy domain profile. download dataset Vertical Positional Accuracy Vertical accuracy varies by dataset. Most datasets collected since 2015 will have 19.6 cm at 95% confidence or better vertically determined using GNSS based ground survey points. Data are received from contracted collections, other NOAA offices, or other federal, state, or local agencies. The data are standardized for ingest into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer and made available to the public. Lidar data are obtained from another source or through NOAA contract. Information about the data is gathered, usually from metadata and project reports from the lidar provider. The primary information necessary includes: 1) projection 2) datums 3) geoid model 4) acquisition dates 5) units 6) classification scheme 7) vertical accuracy NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 coastal.info@noaa.gov processor Data are standardized to geographic coordinates of the horizontal datum they originated in. Vertical values are converted to ellipsoid heights in meters by reversing the datum operation that was originally applied. Data are converted to LAZ format if they are not already in it. NOAA Office for Coastal Management (843) 740-1202 coastal.info@noaa.gov processor Data are ingested into the Digital Coast Data Access Viewer. This includes: 1) verification that the point classifications found match the expected classifications based on the metadata or reports. 2) data fall within the expected bounds. 3) vertical ranges are recorded for each data tile and point class. 4) geographic bounds for each tile are recorded. 5) point classification table used is recorded.
