      <abstract>These data were collected by the Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise using the CHARTS system.
The data includes hydrographic and topographic data. The data were collected in Dec 2005-Feb 2006 for the coasts of
South Carolina, Georgia and the Atlantic coast of Florida.

            <description>These data were collected using a SHOALS-1000T system.
It is owned and operated by Fugro Pelagos performing
contract survey services for the US Army Corps of
Engineers.
The system collects topographic lidar data at 10kHz and
hydrographic data at 1kHz.  The system also collects RGB
imagery at 1Hz.
Aircraft position, velocity and acceleration information are
collected through a combination of Novatel and POS A/V
equipment.
Raw data are collected and transferred to the office for
downloading and processing in SHOALS GCS software.
GPS data are processed using POSPac software and the
results are combined with the lidar data to produce 3-D
positions for each lidar shot.  These data are edited using
Fledermaus software where anomalous data are removed
from the dataset.
The edited data are unloaded from SHOALS GCS,
converted from ellipsoid to orthometric heights, based on
the GEOID03 model, and split into greographic tiles
covering approximately 5km each.</description>

            <description>The NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) received files in ascii format. The files contained
lidar intensity and elevation measurements. OCM performed the following
processing on the data to make it available within the Lidar Data Retrieval
Tool (LDART):
1. Each hydro/topo last return ascii file was converted to las files.  Default values for which there is no corresponding
input were assigned as follows for each las elevation data record: intensity = 0, retn = 1, nret = 1, class = 0
2. The las files were sorted by latitude and the las header fields were updated.</description>
