NE, NW, SE, SW
Summary
Shoreline change
Parameters
Shoreline location, beach and nearshore profiles, change rate
Notes
FDEP/ORCP Historic Shoreline Database has maps, MHW files, profiles, bathymetry maps, aerial photos. GIS shapefiles include beach profiles, critical beach erosion areas, monitoring locations (R-Monuments), beach planning/nourishment projects, and the CCCL line. Regional Coastal Monitoring Section only conducts upland beach profiles only. Coastal Data Acquisition Program dissolved - full monitoring effort (upland profile and hydrographic profiles is tied to JCP permitted project sites.
