Contracted data 2018-303-CNT

Identifier 2018-303-CNT
Alternate names RSCC_2
Data provider Charles Wayne Wright
Purpose Collect aerial imagery of post-Hurricane Florence conditions to create orthomosaic photo and topographic maps for evaluating storm-induced coastal change.
Location NC coast
Summary Collected aerial imagery along the coast from Cape Fear to Corolla, NC.
Info derived Aerial images and aircraft navigation data, suitable for conducting SfM processing and creating orthomosaic photos, DEM and point cloud data.
Comments Aerial imagery collected by C. Wayne Wright (manned aircraft), using a Sony A7R 36 Megapixel digital camera, and PPK GPS was recorded aboard the plane (GPS device/model unknown).

2018-10_NC_AircraftPositions.zip Digital Camera Post-processed navigation file, including image times and corresponding aircraft positions (.txt).
FloSup_2018-10-NC_DEMs Digital Camera The digital elevation models (DEMs) estimate the land surface after Hurricane Florence and were created to document interannual changes in shoreline position and coastal morphology in response to storm events using aerial imagery collections and a structure-from-motion (SFM) workflow. This dataset is comprised of 15 separate DEM images.
FloSup_2018-10-NC_orthos Digital Camera The RGB averaged ortho products are created to document interannual changes in shoreline position and coastal morphology in response to storm events using aerial imagery collections and the structure-from-motion (SFM) workflow. This dataset is comprised of 15 separate image orthomosaics in COG TIFF format. Andrew C Ritchie
