Service Description: This work sought to compile the best-available elevation and bathymetry data for the state, then construct a new, continuous topographic/bathymetric digital elevation model (DEM). These combined data would generate a much more useful picture of the coastal environment, allowing for better coastal hazards planning along with the more traditional upland uses. In addition to the DEM both a hillshade and 2, 5, and 10-foot contour datasets were developed. These products are in high demand for effective visualization and analysis, and create a complete elevation product package for the state that can then be used for evaluating coastal hazards.

Title: Hurricane of 1938 Flood Level Developed From a LiDAR-Derived Elevation Model

Comments: This work sought to compile the best-available elevation and bathymetry data for the state, then construct a new, continuous topographic/bathymetric digital elevation model (DEM).

Subject: The flood level recorded at the Newport tide gauge extrapolated across the state to highlight potential areas of vulnerability.
