| Our general approach to technology validation
is to compare remote sensing datasets to photogrammetric or field surveyed
datasets. We have established several validation sites for coastal mapping,
that are designed to represent differing coastal geomorphologies and imaging
conditions. We have attempted to obtain a wide variety of image data at
these sites. We have active evaluations underway at Castle
Bay, AK, Kodiak, AK, Coastal
Louisiana, and Tampa, FL. We have
evaluations in the beginning stages at Yakutat
Bay, AK, San Francisco, CA, Ocean
City, MD, Bay St. Louis, MS,
and Penobscot Bay, ME.
To support NGS' airport obstruction charting program, we have active experiments underway at Harrisburg International Airport in Pennsylvania and Asheville, NC. |
