USGS Contract: G10PC00026
Task Order Number: G10PD00578
LiDAR was collected at a nominal pulse spacing of 2.0 meters for a 700 square mile area to
the east of Mobile Bay, either not previously surveyed using LiDAR sensors or where the collected
data was poor, while no snow was on the ground and rivers were at or below normal levels.
The goal of the NGOM LiDAR project in the post-Katrina environment is to provide scientific
knowledge and tools required to make optimal decisions about land resource use, management
practices, and future development in the northern Gulf of Mexico coastal zone. This regional
LiDAR elevation mapping data will be used for modeling, predicting landscape change, promoting
restoration of ecosystems, and mitigating risks associated with anthropomorphic and natural hazards.
