XYZ files of lidar and multibeam sonar data collected at Lake Superior at Minnesota Point, Duluth, MN, July 2020

Metadata Updated: September 14, 2024

This dataset consists of two files containing northing, easting, and elevation ("XYZ") information for light detection and ranging (lidar) data representing the beach and near-shore topography of Lake Superior at Minnesota Point, Duluth, Minnesota. The point data is the same as that in the LAS dataset used to create a digital elevation model (DEM) of the approximately 2.27 square kilometer surveyed area. Lidar data were collected July 23, 2020 using a boat mounted Velodyne unit. Multibeam sonar data were collected July 20th and 23rd, 2020 using a Norbit integrated wide band multibeam system (iWBMSc) sonar unit. Methodology for data collection similar to Wagner, D.M., Lund, J.W., and Sanks, K.M., 2020 was used.
