Summary
Abstract: ABSTRACT: NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) is building high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) to support individual coastal States as part of the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program's (NTHMP) efforts to improve community preparedness and hazard mitigation. These integrated bathymetric-topographic DEMs are used to support tsunami and coastal inundation mapping. ... View entire text

Purpose: PURPOSE: Developed for the National Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Program to support tsunami modeling and coastal inundation mapping efforts.

Quality LOGICAL CONSISTENCY REPORT: Datasets are visually compared internally and externally (with other overlapping datasets. satellite images, and maps) in ESRI ArcGIS for identification of anomalous elevations or data inconsistencies. Where elevation inconsistencies occurred, the most recent and/or highest resolution data set is selected for use in that region. Elevations in the older and/or ... View entire text
