Geospatial, continuous, and point measure data for a spatial and temporal assessment of back-barrier erosion on Cumberland Island National Seashore, Georgia, 2011-2013:

June 29, 2016

This data release contains four data files that were used to evaluate the conditions during which erosion occurred and the magnitude of erosional events. A single shapefile contains shoreline positions for five sites measured during the beginning and end of the project and projected shoreline positions based on the observed erosion rates. There are three .csv files that contain measured erosion pin data, photo-electric erosion pin data, and acoustic energy and water level data.
