Abstract:
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducts baseline and storm-response photography missions to document and understand the changes in the vulnerability of the Nation's coasts to extreme storms. On May 6, 2008, the USGS conducted an oblique aerial photographic survey from False Cape State Park, Virginia, to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, aboard a U.S. Coast Guard HH60 Helicopter aircraft at an altitude of 500 feet (ft) and approximately 1,200 ft offshore. This mission (08CH01) was conducted to collect data for assessing incremental changes in the beach and nearshore area since the last survey, which was flown in September 2003 (
https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=03CCH01) (Subino 2013), and the data can be used to assess future coastal change. The photographs provided are Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) images. The photograph locations are an estimate of the aircraft's position and do not indicate the location of the features in the images. These photographs document the configuration of the barrier islands and other coastal features at the time of the survey. ExifTool (version 4.0) was used to add the following to the header of each photograph: time of collection, GPS latitude, GPS longitude, keywords, credit, artist (photographer), caption, copyright, and contact information. Photographs can be opened with any JPEG-compatible image viewer. All image times are recorded in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
Purpose:
To provide access to digital photographs taken as part of the May 6, 2008, baseline oblique aerial survey collected along the coast from False Cape State Park, Virginia, to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and to provide access to attribute data that documents the time and location where each photograph was taken.
Supplemental_Information:
For a summary of field activity 08ACH01 please see
https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=08ACH01. Bounding coordinates for the oblique aerial survey are derived from the overall flight path found in the GPS data. Ancillary files included in this publication are: 08ACH01-LocationMaps.zip, 08ACH01-ProcessedNav.zip, 08ACH01-SupplementalFiles.zip, and 08ACH01-RawGPSNav.zip; in addition to the digital oblique aerial image zip files.
