Map# 20: LIDAR
Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) is a remote sensing system used to collect topographic data. This system is being used to document topographic changes along shorelines. After establishing a baseline, scientists can then follow up in the future to detect shoreline changes. This map captures elevation data from Hilton Head, South Carolina to enable the study of shorelines changes there.
