USGS CoastCam at DUNEX: Intrinsic and Extrinsic Calibration Data (Camera 1)

Two digital video cameras were temporarily installed at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge (PINWR) in North Carolina (NC), as part of the DUring Nearshore Event eXperiment (DUNEX). DUNEX was a collaborative community-led experiment that took place in the fall of 2021 along the Outer Banks of NC, with the goal of improving the understanding, observational techniques, and predictive capabilities for extreme storm processes and impacts within the coastal environment. At the USFWS PINWR site, cameras were deployed for about a month, from September 18 to October 24, 2021, during which several storms passed offshore of the site. The cameras were mounted on separate 7-meter (m) tall masts within the dune, facing northeast and offshore, in a stereo configuration with approximately 75% overlap in field of view, to measure shoreline water levels and coincident topographic beach profiles. Images were collected during daylight hours with two schemes: 1) both cameras recording at 1 Hertz (Hz) for 5 minutes (min) starting 10 min before the hour for stereo photogrammetric processing to measure topographic beach profiles, and 2) one camera recording at 2 Hz for 17 min starting at the top of the hour for producing snapshots and time-averaged image products used to measure wave runup. This metadata record is for camera 1 and includes the necessary intrinsic orientation (IO) and extrinsic orientation (EO) calibration data to utilize the imagery to make quantitative measurements. The cameras are part of a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) research project to study the beach and nearshore environment. USGS researchers utilize the imagery collected from these cameras to remotely sense a range of information including shoreline position, sandbar migration, wave runup on the beach, alongshore currents, and nearshore bathymetry. This camera is part of the USGS CoastCam network. To learn more about the DUNEX camera deployment visit, https://www.usgs.gov/centers/whcmsc/science/dunex-pea-island-experiment.

Shorty's Island Substrate Enhancement Pilot Project Extent, Kootenai River near Bonners Ferry, ID, 2014

The substrate enhancement pilot project (SEPP) extent GIS layer represents an area 
where an artificial substrate will be placed. The artificial substrate, consisting of a mixed 
size class of gravel, is aimed at providing a more suitable substrate for sturgeon eggs 
and early-life rearing habitat. The location of the SEPP extent was created by analyzing 
the egg-mat network, bathymetric features, surficial sediment facies, and streamflow 
characteristics. The egg-mat data represent points where sturgeon eggs were captured 
in previous years, indicating a preference of spawning location. The bathymetry and 
surficial sediment facies data were used to delineate areas that were relatively flat 
and completely within the areas of lucustrine clay outcroppings. The streamflow data, 
consisting of acoustic doppler current profiles throughout the reach, was used to 
determine areas where the streamflow velocities were high enough to maintain 
sediment transport of sand and fine grained sediment so that deposition of that 
sediment would be minimal. The SEPP extent represents an area where sturgeon 
have spawned previously, located on a low sloped and predominanly lucstrine clay 
surface, and in an area of relatively high streamflow velocities.

Photogrammetrically Controlled, Equirectangular Galileo Image Mosaics of Europa

The Solid State Imager (SSI) on NASA's Galileo spacecraft acquired more than 500 images of Jupiter's moon, Europa, providing the only moderate- to high-resolution images of the moon's surface. Images were acquired as observation sequences during each orbit that targeted the moon. Each of these observation sequences consists of between 1 and 19 images acquired close in time, that typically overlap, have consistent illumination and similar pixel scale. The observations vary from relatively low-resolution hemispherical imaging, to high-resolution targeted images that cover a small portion of the surface. Here we provide average mosaics of each of the individual observation sequences acquired by the Galileo spacecraft. These observation mosaics were constructed from a set of 481 Galileo images that were photogrammetrically controlled globally (along with 221 Voyager 1 and 2 images) to improve their relative locations on Europa's surface. The 92 observation mosaics provide users with nearly the entire Galileo Europa imaging dataset at its native resolution and with improved relative image locations.

Coastal Features Extracted from Landsat Satellite Imagery, Northern Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana, 1984-2019

The data release (Bernier, 2021) associated with this metadata record serves as an archive of coastal land-cover and feature datasets derived from Landsat satellite imagery at the northern Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana. To minimize the effects of tidal water-level variations, 75 cloud-free, low-water images acquired between 1984 and 2019 were analyzed. Water, bare earth (sand), vegetated, and intertidal land-cover classes were mapped from Hewes Point to Palos Island using successive thresholding and masking of the modified normalized difference water index (mNDWI), the normalized difference bare land index (NBLI), and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). Vector shoreline, sand, and vegetated feature extents were extracted for each image by contouring the spectral indices using the calculated threshold values. The geographic information system (GIS) data files with accompanying formal Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) metadata can be downloaded from https://doi.org/10.5066/P9HY3HOR.

02031 - Geophysical Surveys of Bear Lake, Utah-Idaho, September 2002 - Sidescan-sonar Tracklines (SSS_TRK)

Bear Lake is a tectonic lake that has existed for at least several hundred thousand years. The lake basin is a relatively simple half graben, a spoon-shaped depression tilted toward the main fault on the east side of the lake. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with researchers from several universities, has been studying the sediments of Bear Lake since 1996. The general purpose of this effort is to reconstruct past limnological conditions and regional climate on a range of timescales, from hundreds of years to hundreds of thousands of years. This research relates to a variety of human concerns, including water usage in the Bear River basin. Past work has included several coring operations, a seismic-reflection survey, sediment-trap deployments, a barge-mounted drilling operation with the GLAD800 drill rig, and a variety of other studies.
The objectives of the September, 2002 operations, preliminarily reported here, were (1) to compile a detailed bathymetric map of the lake using swath-mapping techniques, in order to provide baseline data for a variety of applications and studies, and (2) to complete a sidescan-sonar survey of the lake, providing a nearly complete acoustic image of the lake floor. Limited amounts of subbottom acoustic-reflection data (chirp) were also collected, along with samples of lake-floor sediments representative of different kinds of backscatter patterns.  These surveys followed an earlier subbottom acoustic-reflection survey (1997), using boomer and 3.5 kHz systems (S. M. Colman, unpublished data).

Sprague River Oregon Floodplain Boundary

The Sprague River drains 4090 square kilometers in south-central Oregon before flowing into the Williamson 
River and upper Klamath Lake. In cooperation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the USGS and University 
of Oregon conducted a study to evaluate channel and floodplain processes for the 131 km of the Sprague River 
and its major tributaries, including the lower 20 km of the South Fork Sprague River, the lower 16 km of the North 
Fork Sprague River, and the lower 62 km of the Sycan River. The study involved multiple analyses, including 
assessments of historical channel change, riparian and floodplain vegetation, and surficial geology. To support 
these analyses, digital floodplain and channel maps were prepared from historic notes, maps, and aerial photos 
to depict channel and floodplain conditions at different times between 1866 and 2005. The geospatial database 
of current and historic channel and floodplain conditions will also enable evaluation of long-term trends pertaining 
to aquatic and riparian habitat conditions.

Trackline navigation for Swath interferometric data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey along the Delmarva Peninsula, MD and VA, 2014 (Esri polyline shapefile, GCS WGS 84)

The Delmarva Peninsula is a 220-kilometer-long headland, spit, and barrier island complex that was significantly affected by Hurricane Sandy. A U.S. Geological Survey cruise was conducted in the summer of 2014 to map the inner continental shelf of the Delmarva Peninsula using geophysical and sampling techniques to define the geologic framework that governs coastal system evolution at storm-event and longer timescales. Data collected during the 2014 cruise include swath bathymetry, sidescan sonar, chirp and boomer seismic-reflection profiles, acoustic Doppler current profiler, and sample and bottom photograph data. Processed data in raster and vector format are released here for the swath bathymetry, sidescan sonar, and seismic-reflection profiles.  More information about the USGS survey conducted as part of the Hurricane Sandy Response-- Geologic Framework and Coastal Vulnerability Study can be found at the project website or on the WHCMSC Field Activity Web pages: https://woodshole.er.usgs.gov/project-pages/delmarva/ and https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2014-002-FA

Seafloor elevation change from 2002 to 2016 in the Upper Florida Keys

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center conducted research to quantify bathymetric changes in the Upper Florida Keys (UFK) from Triumph Reef to Pickles Reef within a 242.4 square-kilometer area. USGS staff calculated changes in seafloor elevation from 2002 to 2016 using light detection and ranging (lidar)-derived data acquired by the USGS in 2001 and 2002 and lidar-derived data acquired by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 2016 and 2017. Most of the elevation data from these two time periods was collected during 2002 and 2016. As an abbreviated naming convention, we refer to this study time period and dataset as 2002-2016. An elevation change analysis between the 2002 and 2016 lidar data was performed to quantify and map impacts to seafloor elevation and to determine elevation and volume change statistics for 13 habitat types found in the UFK. This elevation change study was conducted under Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary permit FKNMS-2016-068.

2013 NOAA Oahu Lidar-Derived Dune Crest, Toe and Shoreline

The Storm-Induced Coastal Change Hazards component of the National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards project focuses on understanding the magnitude and variability of extreme storm impacts on sandy beaches. Lidar-derived beach morphologic features such as dune crest, toe and shoreline help define the vulnerability of the beach to storm impacts. This dataset defines the elevation and position of the seaward-most dune crest and toe and the mean high water shoreline derived from the 2013 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Oahu lidar survey. Beach width is included and is defined as the distance between the dune toe and shoreline along a cross-shore profile. The beach slope is calculated using this beach width and the elevation of the shoreline and dune toe.

Irrigation System by Tailwater Recovery on Agricultural Land in the Conterminous United States, 1992: National Resource Inventory Conservation Practice 447

This data set represents the estimated percentage of the 1-km grid cell that is covered by or subject to the 
agricultural conservation practice (CP447), Irrigation System by Tailwater Recovery (ISTR) on agricultural 
land by county.  Irrigation System by Tailwater Recovery is described as "a planned irrigation system in 
which all facilities utilized for the collection, storage, and transportation of irrigation tailwater for reuse have 
been installed." (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 1995) Tailwater is the area immediately below a dam 
where the river water is cooler than normal and rich in nutrients. This data set was created with geographic 
information systems (GIS) and database management tools. The acres on which ISTR's are applied were 
totaled at the county level in the tabular NRI database and then apportioned to a raster coverage of agricultural 
land within the county based on the Enhanced National Land Cover Dataset (NLCDe) 1-kilometer resolution 
land cover grids (Nakagaki, 2003). Federal land is not considered in this analysis because NRI does not 
record information on those lands.

Contours of the Offshore of Refugio Beach, California, were generated from bathymetry data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), by California State University, Monterey Bay, Seafloor Mapping Lab (CSUMB), and by Fugro Pelagos. The USGS conducted mapping within State waters in the summers of 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008 using a combination of 117 kHz and 234.5 kHz SEA (AP) Ltd. SWATHplus-M phase-differencing sidescan sonars. CSUMB conducted mapping in the summers of 2006 and 2007 using a 244 kHz Reson 8101 multibeam echosounder. Fugro Pelagos conducted multibeam mapping in 2008 using a combination of 400 kHz Reson 7125, 240 kHz Reson 8101, and 100 kHz Reson 8111 multibeam echosounders. Fugro Pelagos also conducted coastal bathymetric and topographic lidar mapping in 2009 for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Joint Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise using the SHOALS-1000T bathymetric and the Leica ALS60 topographic lidar systems. All of these mapping missions combined to collect bathymetry from the 0-m isobath to beyond the 3-nautical mile limit of California's state waters.
