Data
The Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program is an innovator in mapping, field studies, data collection, and laboratory analyses, whose expertise is sought by other governmental agencies, educational institutions, and private companies. In turn, we seek collaborative research and development opportunities with similar groups.

Storm-Induced Coastal Change Forecasts: Archive of Individual Storm Events
These data sets contain information on the probabilities of storm-induced erosion (collision, inundation and overwash) on sandy beaches along the U.S. Gulf and Atlantic coasts during real-time peak forecast conditions. The analysis is based on a storm-impact scaling model that uses observations of beach morphology combined with sophisticated hydrodynamic models to predict how the coast will respon
Time series data of oceanographic conditions from La Parguera, Puerto Rico, 2017-2018 Coral Reef Circulation and Sediment Dynamics Experiment
Time-series data of water surface elevation, waves, currents, temperature, and salinity collected between 17 May 2017 and 17 Jan 2018 off the southwest coast of Puerto Rico in support of a study on circulation and sediment transport dynamics over coral reefs. The data are available in NetCDF format, grouped together in zip files by instrument site location. A README.txt file details the files cont
Baseline Coastal Oblique Aerial Photographs Collected from the Harney River, Everglades National Park, Florida to Anclote Key, Florida, November 14, 2006
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), as part of the National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards (NACCH) project conducts baseline and storm-response photography missions to document and understand the changes in the vulnerability of the Nation's coasts to extreme storms and longer-term processes related to sediment supply and sea-level rise. On November 14, 2006, the USGS's NACCH project conducted
Multibeam Bathymetry Data Collected in October and December 2017 at Crocker Reef, the Florida Keys
The U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS SPCMSC), collected multibeam bathymetry data at Crocker Reef in the Florida Keys, October and December 2017, as a part of the Ecosystem Processes Impacting Coastal Change project (EPIC) in an effort to asses sediment accumulation within the survey area. This USGS data release includes the resulting processed elevatio
Multibeam Bathymetry Data Collected in March 2018 at Crocker Reef, the Florida Keys
The U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS SPCMSC), collected multibeam bathymetry data at Crocker Reef in the Florida Keys, March 2018 as a part of the Ecosystem Processes Impacting Coastal Change project (EPIC) in an effort to asses sediment accumulation within the survey area. This USGS data release includes the resulting processed elevation point data (xy
Projected Seafloor Elevation Along the Florida Reef Tract From Deerfield Beach to Homestead, Florida-100 Years From 2014 Based on Historical Rates of Mean Erosion
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center conducted research to quantify the combined effect of all constructive and destructive processes on modern coral reef ecosystems by projecting future regional-scale changes in seafloor elevation for several sites along the Florida Reef Tract, Florida (FL), including the shallow seafloor along the coast of Miami, FL.
Projected Seafloor Elevation Along the Florida Reef Tract From Deerfield Beach to Homestead, Florida-25 Years From 2014 Based on Historical Rates of Mean Erosion
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center conducted research to quantify the combined effect of all constructive and destructive processes on modern coral reef ecosystems by projecting future regional-scale changes in seafloor elevation for several sites along the Florida Reef Tract, Florida (FL), including the shallow seafloor along the coast of Miami, FL.
Projected Seafloor Elevation Along the Florida Reef Tract From Deerfield Beach to Homestead, Florida-75 Years From 2014 Based on Historical Rates of Mean Erosion

Coastal Multibeam Bathymetry Data Collected in August 2017 From the Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana
The U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS SPCMSC), collected multibeam bathymetry data at the Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana, in August 2017. This USGS data release includes the resulting processed elevation point data (xyz) in the native format of the World Geodetic System of 1984 (WGS84) and transformed into the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88

Aerial imagery from unmanned aerial systems (UAS) flights: Plum Island Estuary and Parker River NWR (PIEPR), February 27th, 2018
Low-altitude (80 and 100 meters above ground level) digital images were taken over an area of the Plum Island Estuary and Parker River National Wildlife Refuge in Massachusetts using 3DR Solo unmanned aerial systems (UAS) on February 27, 2018. These images were collected as part of an effort to document marsh stability over time and quantify sediment movement using UAS technology. Each UAS was equ
