NOAA Coastal Orthorectified Mosaic Tiles for Georgetown Port, 2010

March 2010 imagery provides ortho-rectified mosaic tiles from the NOAA Integrated Ocean and Coastal Mapping initiative, focusing on the Port of Georgetown in South Carolina. The dataset contains true color and infrared images captured with an Applanix Digital Sensor System at a 0.35-meter ground sample distance. It is an ancillary product of NOAA's Coastal Mapping Program, created to support multiple coastal analysis uses.

Use Cases

• Shoreline change analysis using georeferenced true color and infrared image tiles.
• Coastal habitat mapping leveraging the 0.35-meter ground sample distance for detailed feature identification.
• Port infrastructure and land use monitoring from ortho-rectified aerial imagery.
• Validation of other remote sensing datasets with precisely corrected mosaic tiles.

Strengths

• High spatial resolution with a ground sample distance of 0.35 meters per pixel.
• Imagery is ortho-rectified, providing geometrically corrected data suitable for measurement.
• Data was acquired over two specific days in March 2010, providing a precise temporal snapshot.

Limitations

• Source descriptions conflict on the last updated date, with one platform listing 2026 and another 2010.
• Key metadata such as row count, file size, specific column names, and license information are unavailable across all platforms.
