Shoreline classification maps and ground truth data for the Neuse River Estuary, North Carolina

Abstract

The dataset offers 2020 digital data on shoreline classification in the Neuse River Estuary, part of the biologically rich but environmentally challenged Albemarle-Pamlico estuary. It details distinct land features, natural shoreline elements, and erosion control structures. The dataset is valuable for evaluating environmental policies, pinpointing restoration sites, and assessing erosion control impacts.
