 "description": "<DIV STYLE=\"text-align:Left;\"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This geodatabase contains a series of state-wide SLR coastal inundation maps corresponding to water surfaces from the mean higher-high water (MHHW) level to 7 feet above MHHW, in 1-foot increments. Development of the bathtub-model inundation maps was based on a high-quality, 1-meter bare earth Digital Elevation Model (DEM) derived from the 2014 state-wide LiDAR acquisition. Elevated roadways and bridges not represented in the bare earth DEM were identified, and manually assessed for inundation for each SLR scenario.

 "licenseInfo": "<DIV STYLE=\"text-align:Left;\"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>None. However users should be aware that the LiDAR data upon which these maps are based represents the land surface as it was when data was collected in Winter 2013-2014 and may not be representative of current conditions. Users should also be familiar with LiDAR data collection accuracy, errors, and systematic biases. It should also be noted that these maps are based on a bathtub model which assumes a constant water surface throughout each watershed. Areas where considerable change to the land surface is known to have occurred included the following:Prime Hook, Dikes near New Castle<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>"
