Lidar-Derived Seamless Digital Elevation Model (DEM) Mosaic of Coastal Topography—Assateague Island, Maryland and Virginia, Post-Hurricane Hermine, 10-12 September 2016

A digital elevation model (DEM) mosaic was produced for Assateague Island, Maryland and Virginia, post-Hurricane Hermine, from remotely sensed, geographically referenced elevation measurements collected by Quantum Spatial using a Riegl VQ-880-G (532-nm wavelength circular scan and 1064-nm wavelength linear scan) lidar sensor.
