To support U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) storm surge modeling for the Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA), Lowermost Mississippi River Management Program (LMRMP), the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Coastal National Elevation Database (CoNED) Applications Project has created an integrated 1-meter topobathymetric digital elevation model (TBDEM) for the Northern Gulf of Mexico (NGOM)-2. High-resolution coastal topobathymetric data are required to model flooding, storms, and sea-level rise inundation hazard zones and other earth science applications, such as the development of sediment transport and storm surge models. The new TBDEM consists of the best available multi-source topographic...
