ArcGIS Also Used for Analysis<br />
DATA ACQUIRED USING USACE’S COASTAL ZONE MAPPING AND IMAGING LIDAR (CZMIL) was also analyzed in<br />
ESRI ArcGIS to lend insight into storm-driven coastal geomorphology change, and to produce information products critical<br />
to USACE emergency response requirements. In the past, workflows for vector, lidar, and imagery have been collected on<br />
a project-by-project basis. ArcGIS enables users such as USACE to manage these massive collections of data for more<br />
than one purpose and extend the content into 3D. These 3D models, lidar, and imagery can be cataloged and distributed for<br />
access in multiple collections as either raster data, raw elevation data, or Esri webscenes. If data is not necessary, it can be<br />
easily filtered out for a clean representation. By managing massive 3D models and point clouds with ArcGIS, data can be<br />
more easily visualized and analyzed.<br />
