| Purpose | To provide ground truthing and Control for the Breton Island Bathymetry LiDAR survey scheduled to occur in early 2014 | ||||||||
| Location | Breton Island National Wildlife Refuge, LA | ||||||||
| Summary | We will be providing support for LiDAR operations as well as collecting bathymetric data in order to ground truth recently developed Bathymetric LiDAR capabilities. | ||||||||
| Info derived | Elevation and Single Beam Bathymetry | ||||||||
| Comments | An Odom Echotrac and associacted 200 kHz transducer were used to collect bathymetric data. | ||||||||

| baseline | Ashtech Z-Xtreme DGPS | A line shapefile parallel to, and seaward of, the Breton Island 1869-2014 shorelines. The baseline serves as a starting point for the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) to cast transects. | Joseph F Terrano |
| shorelines | Ashtech Z-Xtreme DGPS | Line shapefiles of mean high water shorelines derived from NOAA T-Sheets, aerial imagery, and Lidar, for Breton Island, LA, dating from 1869 to 2014. There are 14 shapefiles, one for each available date. | Joseph F Terrano |
| transects | Ashtech Z-Xtreme DGPS | Line shapefiles of transects generated from the DSAS rate of change program. Transects were generated for the analysis time periods: long-term (1869–2014), long-term historic (1869–1950), post Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet (1950–2014), pre/post Hurricane Katrina (2004–2005), and recent (2005–2014). Rate of change statistics from each analysis are joined to the corresponding transects. There are 5 shapefiles, one for time period. | Joseph F Terrano |
