These integrated bathymetric-topographic DEMs were developed for NOAA Coast Survey Development Laboratory (CSDL) through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 to evaluate the utility of the Vertical Datum Transformation tool (VDatum), developed jointly by NOAA's Office of Coast Survey (OCS), National Geodetic Survey (NGS), and Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS). Bathymetric, topographic, and shoreline data used in DEM compilation are obtained from various sources, including NGDC, the U.S. Coastal Services Center (CSC), the U.S. Office of Coast Survey (OCS), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and other federal, state, and local government agencies, academic institutions, and private companies. DEMs are referenced to the vertical tidal datum of North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88) or Mean High Water (MHW) and horizontal datum of North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). Cell size ranges from 1/3 arc-second (~10 meters) to 1 arc-second (~30 meters). The NOAA VDatum DEM Project was funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 (http://www.recovery.gov/). Developed for the Office of Coast Survey (OCS), NOAA Coast Survey Development Laboratory (CSDL) in support of NOAA's Vertical Datum Transformation tool (VDatum). completed historicalArchive NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information ncei.info@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/contact NCEI Contact Information Information for contacts at NCEI. information pointOfContact NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information DEM Information dem.info@noaa.gov pointOfContact asNeeded https://maps.ngdc.noaa.gov/thumbnails/DEM/673.png Thumbnail of DEM PNG Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Seafloor Topography Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Bathymetry Earth Science > Oceans > Bathymetry/Seafloor Topography > Water Depth Earth Science > Land Surface > Topography > Terrain Elevation Earth Science > Land Surface > Topography > Terrain Elevation > Topographical Relief Maps Earth Science > Oceans > Coastal Processes > Coastal Elevation theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 2024 revision 19 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2024.

Either individual DEMs or small subsets can be accessed through this service. search publisher The DEM Global Mosaic is an image service providing a global, seamless bathymetry/topography mosaic that includes NCEI's ETOPO 2022, NCEI's Continuously Updated DEM (CUDEM), and other NCEI-stewarded DEMs, along with regional grids such as IBCAO, IBCSO and the Hawaiian Island Multibeam Synthesis (University of Hawaii). This service provides elevation/depth values in meters; for a visualization of the data, please see the related DEM Global Mosaic (Color Shaded Relief) service. There are 5 related image services providing access to Digital Elevation Models: DEM Mosaic (Individual DEMs), DEM Global Mosaic (Elevation Values), DEM Global Mosaic (Color Shaded Relief), CUDEM Mosaic (Elevation Values), and CUDEM Mosaic (Color Shaded Relief). NCEI builds and distributes high-resolution, coastal digital elevation models (DEMs) that integrate ocean bathymetry and land topography to support NOAA's mission to understand and predict changes in Earth's environment, and conserve and manage coastal and marine resources to meet our Nation's economic, social, and environmental needs. They can be used for modeling of coastal processes (tsunami inundation, storm surge, sea-level rise, contaminant dispersal, etc.), ecosystems management and habitat research, coastal and marine spatial planning, and hazard mitigation and community preparedness. This service is a general-purpose global, seamless bathymetry/topography mosaic. It combines DEMs from a variety of near sea-level vertical datums, such as mean high water (MHW), mean sea level (MSL), and North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). No conversion/harmonization of vertical datums was performed. Because the mosaic contains 'overviews' for performance, individual DEMs cannot be separated from the others. Individual DEMs, or smaller subsets, are available in the companion DEM Mosaic (Individual DEMs) image service. By default, the DEMs are drawn in order of cell size, with higher-resolution grids displayed on top of lower-resolution grids. If overlapping DEMs have the same resolution, the newer one is shown. Please see NCEI's corresponding DEM Footprints feature service for polygon footprints and more information about the individual DEMs used to create this composite view.

NCEI launched publicly on April 22, 2015. 2015-04-22T00:00:00 dataset Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report The horizontal accuracy of bathymetric and topographic features in the DEM is dependent upon the accuracy of the input datasets used to determine corresponding cell values. Topography: 10 meters due to cell size, 20 meters where SRTM contributes to cell value. Lidar: less than 5 meters. SRTM: 20 meters. DEM cell-value relative-contribution factors: Mobile County, Baldwin County, and CSC Lidar: 10, Digitzed features: 10, SRTM: 1. Bathymetry: 10 to several tens of meters. Positional accuracy of input bathymetric datasets limits accuracy of corresponding cell values in DEM. CSC Lidar: 0.75 meters. Early 20th-century NOS hydrographic soundings are limited by sparseness of deep-water soundings, and potentially large position accuracy of pre-satellite (i.e., GPS) navigation: tens to several tens of meters. Morphologic change in inland rivers and along the coast also degrades the positional accuracy of DEM features. DEM cell-value relative-contribution factors: CSC Lidar: 10, USACE hydrographic survey data: 10, NOS hydrographic soundings: 10, Little Lagoon side scan sonar: 10, Digitized features: 10. Vertical Positional Accuracy Report The vertical accuracy of bathymetric and topographic features in the DEM is dependent upon the accuracy of the input datasets used to determine corresponding cell values. Topography: 1 to 16 meters. Vertical accuracy of input topographic datasets limits accuracy of corresponding cells in DEM. Lidar: less than 1 meter, SRTM: 16 meters. DEM cell relative-contribution factors: Mobile County, Baldwin County, and CSC Lidar: 10, Digitized features: 10, SRTM: 1. Bathymetry: 0.1 meters to 5% of water depth. Vertical accuracy of input bathymetric datasets limits accuracy of corresponding cells in DEM. Early 20th-century NOS hydrographic soundings are limited by sparseness of deep-water soundings, and potentially large position accuracy of pre-satellite (i.e., GPS) navigation: several meters. DEM cell relative-contribution factors: CSC Lidar: 10, USACE hydrographic survey data: 10, NOS hydrographic soundings: 10, Little Lagoon side scan sonar: 10, Digitized features: 10. Gridding interpolation to determine cell values between sparse NOS hydrographic soundings in deep water degrades the vertical accuracy of deep-water elevations. NGDC made every effort to obtain all available digital topographic and bathymetric datasets in the region for use in building the DEM. Datasets were visually compared internally and externally (with other overlapping datasets and satellite images and maps) in ESRI ArcGIS for identification of anomalous elevations or data inconsistencies. Where elevation inconsistencies occurred, the most recent and/or highest resolution data set was selected for use in that region. Elevations in the older and/or lower-resolution datasets were deleted prior to building the DEM. All datasets obtained by NGDC were converted to common horizontal and vertical datums of NAD 83 geographic and NAVD 88, respectively, using FME and VDatum transformation tool. They were also converted to common file format, ESRI point shapefiles, for visualization and inspection. 2009-08-28T00:00:00 Matthew R. Love NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information pointOfContact Datasets were visually inspected with ArcGIS for identification and editing of data anomalies. Datasets were then compared with overlapping datasets to ensure data consistency. 2009-09-10T00:00:00 Coastline datasets were merged and adjusted to fit satellite imagery. 2009-09-24T00:00:00 xyz files of the bathymetric data were surfaced using GMT's 'surface' tool onto a 1 arc-second grid outside Mobile Bay and 1/3 arc-second within the bay that interpolated to fill empty cells. Points extracted every 10 meters along the coastline were also included to ensure that the bathymetric grid reached zero at the coast. The resulting Arc ASCII grid was imported into ArcGIS and clipped to the coastline to remove values over land. 2009-10-14T00:00:00 xyz files for each input dataset were gridded using MB-System's 'mbgrid' tool, which utilizes a high-tension spline interpolation method to fill grid cells with no input elevation values. Preferential weighting was given to more recent, higher-accuracy datasets. Gridding was performed in quadrants, each with a 5% data buffer. The grids were imported in ArcGIS and seamlessly merged to create the final DEM. 2009-10-23T00:00:00 The NAVD 88 DEM was quantitatively evaluated by comparing with source datasets and with elevation values extracted from NGS geodetic monuments. It was visually evaluated by converting to UTM-zone coordinates (units of meters horizontally and vertically) and then creating a slope grid to identify gridding artifacts in the DEM. 2009-11-17T00:00:00 A conversion grid that models the relationship between NAVD 88 and MHW was created using data points and the VDatum transformation tool. This conversion grid was added to the NAVD 88 DEM to generate the MHW DEM. 2009-11-23T00:00:00 Source Contribution: Hydrographic surveys provided to NGDC by CSDL ; Source Type: digital files via FTP NOS Hydrographic Surveys 2009-01-01 publication DOC/NOAA/NOS/OCS/CSDL > Coast Survey Development Laboratory, OCS, NOS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce originator https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/csdl.html CSDL non-superceded NOS Hydrographic Survey Database Digital database of non-superceded NOS hydrographic surveys that date back to the late 19th century. download 1888-01-01 2001-01-01 Source Contribution: Hydrographic surveys for Mobile Bay and Mississippi Sound ; Source Type: online USACE Hydrographic Surveys 2009-01-01 publication U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District originator http://www.sam.usace.army.mil// USACE Mobile District Hydrographic Surveys Digital database of hydrographic surveys in Mobile District download 2009-01-01 Source Contribution: Mosaic of side scan sonar surveys of Little Lagoon ; Source Type: digital files via FTP Little Lagoon Side Scan Sonar Surveys 2008-01-01 publication City of Gulf Shores, AL, Coastal Monitoring Program, administered by Olsen Associates, Inc., Jacksonville, FL. originator http://www.gulfshoresal.gov/ Little Lagoon side scan sonar surveys Mosaic of side scan sonar surveys of Little Lagoon download 2008-01-01 Source Contribution: coastal lidar ; Source Type: online NOAA Coastal Services Center Coastal Bathymetric-Topographic Lidar 2005-01-01 publication DOC/NOAA/NOS/CSC > Coastal Services Center, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce originator http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ngdc.noaa.gov%2Fdocucomp%2Fpage%3Fxml%3DNOAA%2FNESDIS%2FNGDC%2FCollection%2Fiso%2Fxml%2FUSCoastalLidarElevationData.xml%26amp%3Bview%3DgetDataView%26amp%3Bheader%3DnoneTCM%2F&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNHc0sLvXk7iHVPyZC57I2r7-g4zCA 2005 USACE Post-Hurricane Katrina Topographic/Bathymetric Mapping CSC coastal bathymetric-topographic Lidar download 2005-01-01 Source Contribution: composite shoreline downloaded from web site. ; Source Type: online Composite Shoreline and associated data of Alabama State Composite, AL_COMP 2001-01-01 publication DOC/NOAA/NOS/NGS > National Geodetic Survey, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S Department of Commerce originator http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/RSD/shoredata/NGS_Shoreline_Products.htm Composite Shoreline and associated data of Alabama State Composite, AL_COMP The shoreline and associated data are a representation based on an office interpretation of imagery at the time of photographs taken 19780101 to 19860301. download 1978-01-01 1986-01-01 Source Contribution: topographic lidar ; Source Type: digital files via FTP Mobile County topographic lidar 2002-01-01 publication Mobile County Engineering Department originator 2002-01-01 Source Contribution: topographic lidar ; Source Type: digital files via FTP Baldwin County topographic lidar 2001-01-01 publication Baldwin County Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Department originator 2001-01-01 Source Contribution: downloaded from web site. ; Source Type: online Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) 2008-01-01 publication NASA > National Aeronautics and Space Administration originator https://lta.cr.usgs.gov/SRTM1Arc Shuttle Radar Topography Mission global topography download 2000-01-01 series Data Stewardship Data Stewardship Maturity Assessment MM-Stew The Data Stewardship Maturity Matrix (DSMM) is a unified framework that defines criteria for each of nine components based on measurable practices, which can be used to apply a progressive, 6-level rating to an individual dataset, representing stewardship maturity stages rated as Not Assessed or Not Available (Level 0), adHoc (Level 1), minimum (Level 2), intermediate (Level 3), advanced (Level 4), and optimal (Level 5).
