Shoreline data for Ocean Beach, San Francisco, California, 2004 to 2021
This dataset contains historical shoreline positions (MHW - local Mean High Water, and MSL - local Mean Sea Level) that span 17 years, from 2004 to 2021, for Ocean Beach, San Francisco, California, USA. Shorelines were extracted from topographic elevation data collected by the USGS. Shoreline position data can be used to calculate rates of shoreline change (accretion or erosion) and to evaluate the performance of shoreline change models.
