These data were collected by the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration National Geodetic Survey Remote Sensing Division using a Riegl VQ820G system. The data is for Barnegat Light, New Jersey, in Ocean County. The data were acquired from 20130923 - 20130924. The data includes topobathy data in an LAS 1.2 format file classified as: unclassified (1), ground (2), noise (7), high point (21), bathymetric point (26), bathy noise (27). For Digital Coast storage purposes, NOAA OCM reclassified the following classes: 21 (high points) reclassed to 7 (low point, noise), 26 (bathymetric point) reclassed to 11 (NOAA OCM bathymetric lidar point), 27 (bathy noise) reclassed to 9 (water). Therefore, the classes of data available from the NOAA Digital Coast are: 1 Unclassified 2 Ground 7 Noise 9 Water 11 Bathymetric lidar This data set also includes lidar intensity values and encoded RGB image values.
