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.", "summary": "The flood level recorded at the Newport tide gauge extrapolated across the state to highlight potential areas of vulnerability.", "title": "Hurricane of 1938 Flood Level Developed From a LiDAR-Derived Elevation Model", "tags": [ "SLR", "climate change", "sea level rise", "inundation", "hurricanes", "storm surge", "RI", "Rhode Island", "RIGIS", "URI EDC", "URI CRC" ], "type": "Map Service", "typeKeywords": [ "Data", "Service", "Map Service", "ArcGIS Server" ], "thumbnail": "thumbnail/thumbnail.png", "url": "", "extent": [ [ -71.9161237478115, 41.1313792968049 ], [ -71.0979126941309, 42.0334333815589 ] ], "spatialReference": "WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere", "accessInformation": "Rhode Island Sea Grant; University of Rhode Island Environmental Data Center (URIEDC); RI Division of Planning; RI CRMC, University of Rhode Island Coastal Resources Center (URI CRC)", "licenseInfo": "" }
