EAARL-B Submerged Topography-Fort Lauderdale, Florida, 2014
May 3, 2016
These mosaics, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide pre- and post-calibration lidar-derived submerged topography for a portion of the submerged environs of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Elevation measurements were acquired by the second-generation Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL-B) on April 21 and 22, 2014. The data were collected in order to determine the clear-water depth calibration constants of the EAARL-B sensor.

Depth calibration and validation of the Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar, EAARL-B
The original National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Experimental Advanced Airborne Research
Lidar (EAARL), was extensively modified to increase the spatial sampling density and improve performance in
water ranging from 3–44 m. The new (EAARL-B) sensor features a 300% increase in spatial density, which was
achieved by optically splitting each laser pulse into 3 pulses spatially separa
