Beach Topography—Fire Island, New York, Pre-Hurricane Sandy, January 2012: Ground Based Lidar (ASCII XYZ Point Data)

The U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS-SPCMSC) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Field Research Facility (USACE-FRF) of Duck, North Carolina collaborated to gather alongshore ground-based lidar beach topography at Fire Island, New York. This high-resolution, elevation dataset was collected on January 30, 2012, and was funded by SPCMSC. The USGS data release containing the aforementioned dataset includes the resulting, processed elevation point data (XYZ) and an interpolated digital elevation model (DEM).

美国地质调查局圣彼得堡海岸与海洋科学中心（U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, 简称USGS-SPCMSC）与北卡罗来纳州达克市的美国陆军工程兵团野外研究设施（U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Field Research Facility, 简称USACE-FRF）合作，在纽约州火岛采集了沿岸地面激光雷达（LiDAR）海滩地形数据。该高分辨率高程数据集采集于2012年1月30日，由SPCMSC资助。包含上述数据集的美国地质调查局数据发布包包含经处理的高程点数据（XYZ格式）以及插值生成的数字高程模型（Digital Elevation Model, DEM）。
