Summary

This data release presents structure-from-motion (SfM) products derived from aerial imagery collected along the North Carolina coast in response to storm events and the recovery process. U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) researchers use the aerial imagery and products to assess future coastal vulnerability, nesting habitats for wildlife, and provide data for hurricane impact models. This research is part of the Remote Sensing Coastal Change Project. Products include digital elevation models and orthorectified imagery (RGB-averaged products) created from aerial imagery surveys with precise Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) navigation data flown in a piloted fixed-wing aircraft. The products span the coast over both highly developed [...]

Purpose

Data were obtained to document changes in shoreline position, landcover, and coastal morphology in response to storm events. These data are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. These data can be viewed in geographic information systems or other software to identify topographic and shallow-water bathymetric features.
