Dataset Description of Original Data: LIDAR-derived binary (.las) files containing classified points of all returns. The classifications are: Unclassified, Ground, Low Noise, Water, Bridge Decks, High Noise and Ignored Ground. These files adhere to USGS-NGP Lidar Base Specification 2022 rev. A Quality Level 1 (QL1) standards, eight points or greater per square meter. These files are delivered in tile format (1000x1000m).

This metadata record supports the data entry in the NOAA Digital Coast Data Access Viewer (DAV). For this data set, the DAV is leveraging the Entwine Point Tiles (EPT) hosted by USGS on Amazon Web Services.
