The CRM spans the U.S. East and West Coasts, the northern coast of the Gulf of Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii, reaching out to, and in places even beyond, the continental slope. Bathymetric and topographic data sources include: NGDC's NOS hydrographic surveys, multibeam bathymetry, and trackline bathymetry; the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS); and other federal government agencies and academic institutions. Bathymetric contours from the International Bathymetric Chart of the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico project were also used. Digital elevation models (DEMs) of the Great Lakes, Southern Alaska, and high-resolution DEMs of U.S. coastal communities and territories are also available. To provide long-term scientific data stewardship for the Nation's geophysical data, ensuring quality, integrity, and accessibility. underDevelopment DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce DEM Information dem.info@noaa.gov pointOfContact asNeeded http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/coastal/startcrm.jpg View of U.S. Coastal Relief Model JPEG EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > Marine Geophysics > Continental Shelves EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > Bathymetry > Seafloor Topography EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > Marine Geophysics > Continental Rises/Slopes EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > Bathymetry > Water Depths EARTH SCIENCE > OCEANS > Coastal Processes > Coastal Elevation theme NASA/GCMD Earth Science Keywords INFOTERRA > Marine environments > Coastal Ecosystems > Coastal Areas INFOTERRA > Subject disciplines > Geophysics > Geophysics INFOTERRA > Subject disciplines > Geomorphology > Geomorphology theme INFOTERRA Keyword Thesaurus Coastal Bathymetry Outer Continental Shelf Coastal Topography theme Uncontrolled Keywords WDC/MGG, BOULDER > World Data Center for Marine Geology and Geophysics, Boulder DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NGDC > National Geophysical Data Center, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce theme NASA/GCMD Data Center Keywords Sea Floor Atlantic Ocean North America place NASA/GCMD Location Keywords Not to be used for navigation.

NOAA???s National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) is building high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) for select U.S. coastal regions to support inundation modeling and community mitigation and resiliency efforts. These integrated bathymetric-topographic DEMs support tsunami forecast and warning from NOAA???s Tsunami Warning Centers. The DEMs are used in the MOST (Method of Splitting Tsunami) model developed by NOAA???s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) to simulate tsunami generation, propagation, and inundation. Bathymetric, topographic, and shoreline data used in DEM compilation are obtained from various sources, including federal and academia data archived at NGDC, the U.S. National Ocean Service (NOS), the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), and other federal, state, and local government agencies, academic institutions, and private companies. DEMs are referenced to the vertical tidal datum of Mean High Water (MHW) and horizontal datum of World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84). Depending on the user requirements and available data, grid spacings for the DEMs range from 1/3 arc-second (~10 meters) to 3 arc-seconds (~90 meters). largerWorkCitation eng; USA oceans geoscientificInformation elevation -85.00 -67.00 31.00 40.00 1999-01-01 The vertical datum for the source bathymetric data was generally mean lower low water (MLLW). Source topographic data were in NAVD 88. The differences between these datums are less than the vertical accuracy of the CRM, so you can assign Mean Sea Level to the CRM if you like, just recognize that the elevation values may not be as accurate as you might like or need. Assume a vertical accuracy no better than 1 meter for any elevation values in the CRM. Because of its relatively large cell size (3 arc-seconds or roughly 90 m), no effort was made to establish a common vertical datum as the uncertainty in the elevation value of each cell exceeds the differences between vertical datums (typically sub-meter).

NOAA's National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) builds and distributes high-resolution coastal digital elevation models (DEMs) that integrate ocean bathymetry and land topography to support NOAA's mission to understand and predict changes in Earth's environment, and conserve and manage coastal and marine resources to meet our Nation's economic, social, and environmental needs. They can be used for modeling of coastal processes (tsunami inundation, storm surge, sea-level rise, contaminant dispersal, etc.), ecosystems management and habitat research, coastal and marine spatial planning, and hazard mitigation and community preparedness. DEMs included in this visualization: High-resolution DEMs of select U.S. coastal communities and surrounding areas. Most are at a resolution of 1/3 to 1 arc-second (approx 10-30 m); U.S. Coastal Relief Model: A 3 arc-second (approx 90 m) comprehensive view of the conterminous U.S. coastal zone, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii; Southern Alaska Coastal Relief Model: A 24 arc-second (approx. 500 m) model of Southern Alaska, spanning the Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands, and Gulf of Alaska. This map service can be used as a basemap. It has a transparent background, so it can also be shown as a layer on top of a different basemap. Please see NGDC's corresponding DEM Footprints map service for polygon footprints and more information about the individual DEMs used to create this composite view.
