Description This dataset contains shoreline positions derived from available Landsat satellite imagery for five states (Delaware, Maryland, Viginia, Georgia, and Florida) along the U.S. Atlantic coast for the time period 1984 to 2021. An open-source toolbox, CoastSat (Vos and others, 2019a and 2019b), was used to classify coastal Landsat imagery and detect shorelines at the sub-pixel scale. Resulting shorelines are presented in KMZ format. Significant uncertainty is associated with the locations of shorelines in [More]
