Description

In this project, we use the Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data to create the Digital Elevation Model (DEM). The LiDAR data can be downloaded through the Data Access Viewer of NOAA ( https://coast.noaa.gov/dataviewer/#/lidar/search/). For Molokai, the majority of the DEM is created using the data of 2013 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) National Coastal Mapping Program (NCMP) Topobathy LiDAR – Local Mean Sea Level (LMSL). For some areas not covered by this data set, we use the LiDAR data from 2006 FEMA LiDAR: Hawaiian Islands and 2007 JALBTCX Hawaii LiDAR: North Coasts of Hawaii (Big Island), Kauai, Maui, Molokai, Oahu, which are accessed in the Data Access Viewer of NOAA. Please read “Description of Digital Elevation Model (DEM) for Molokai, Hawaii.docx” for detailed information.
