2019-08_NC_ Digital Camera Aerial imagery divided into folders based on 3-minute latitude segments Christine Kranenburg
Digital elevation models (DEMs) of coastal North Carolina, Pre-Hurricane Dorian Digital Camera Digital elevation models (DEMs) were created from aerial imagery collected between August 30 and September 2, 2019, along the North Carolina coast between the Virginia-North Carolina border vicinity and Cape Lookout, North Carolina. These DEMs were created to document ground conditions prior to Hurricane Dorian, which made landfall on the North Carolina coast on September 6, 2019. Andrew C Ritchie
RGB-averaged orthoimagery of coastal North Carolina, Pre-Hurricane Dorian Digital Camera Orthoimages were created from aerial imagery collected between August 30 and September 2, 2019, along the North Carolina coast between the Virginia-North Carolina border vicinity and Cape Lookout, North Carolina. These RBG-averaged orthoimages were created to document ground conditions prior to Hurricane Dorian, which made landfall on the North Carolina coast on September 6, 2019. Andrew C Ritchie
