1950 - 2023 NOAA Seamless Topobathy DEM (Compiled 2023): Kachemak, Point Hope, Teller, AK
NOAA Seamless Topobathy Digital Elevation Model Pilot Incorporating Satellite-Derived Bathymetry - Kachemak, Teller, Point Hope, Alaska, project number 1305M223FNCNP0283DPR. Seamless topographic-bathymetry models were produced for three AOIs along the Alaskan coast, integrating multiple source datasets including bathymetric lidar, topographic lidar, multibeam and singlebeam echosounder, IFSAR, and satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB). Satellite-derived bathymetry was produced using empirical and physics-based radiative transfer models, derived from Maxar and Planet Labs mutlispectral imagery. All data sources were adjusted from MLLW to NAVD88 before integrating to a weighted grid, with weights assigned based on quality and data currency. The weighted grid was then interpolated utilizing Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) surface module, leveraging a spline-in-tension interpolation. DEMs were delivered at 2m resolution. Each DEM delivery includes ancillary files including an in situ source map raster, a known issue polygon feature class, source imagery utilized for SDB production, the individual SDB rasters integrated with the topographic-bathymetry model.
Kachemak AOI covers approximately 1012 km2
Point Hope AOI covers approximately 2329 km2
Teller AOI covers approximately 1160 km2
