This dataset consists of short-term (~30-year) end point shoreline change rates for the South Carolina coastal region where fewer than three shoreline positions were available for the short-term time period (1960 and later). Rate calculations were computed within a GIS using the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) version 4.3, an ArcGIS extension developed by the U.S. Geological Survey. The two shorelines must cover a distance greater than 1 kilometer to be included. A reference baseline was used as the originating point for the orthogonal transects cast by the DSAS software. The transects intersect each shoreline establishing measurement points, which are then used to calculate short-term rates.
