Summary

Abstract: ABSTRACT: NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) is building high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) for select U.S. coastal regions in the Gulf of Mexico. These integrated bathymetric-topographic DEMs were developed for NOAA Coast Survey Development Laboratory (CSDL) through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 to evaluate the utility of the Vertical Datum ...

Purpose: PURPOSE: Developed for the Office of Coast Survey (OCS), NOAA Coast Survey Development Laboratory (CSDL) in support of NOAA's Vertical Datum Transformation tool (VDatum).
