Description:
Abstract:
This dataset was originally developed for the purpose of the tsunami evacuation maps and later extended to include all major clifflines on Guam. The lines were digitized on-screen at a scale of about 1:15,000 based on visual interpretation of LiDAR-derived hillshade and slope raster. Cliffs are taken to generally have a slope greater than 60 degrees. The lines only show the approximate extent of the clifflines.
Purpose: To show the extent of major clifflines on Guam.
Supplemental_Information:
Cliffs are taken to generally have a slope greater than 60 degrees. The location is approximate, line is simplified.

Time_of_Day: 16243300
Process_Description:
Hand-digitized from 2007 LiDAR-derived Bare Earth hillshade for areas for which tsunami evacuation maps were created.
Process_Date: 20110901
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Clifflines were extended to include all major clifflines on Guam for the purpose of including it in the Natural Resource Atlas of Northern Guam. The lines were digitized on-screen at a scale of about 1:15,000 based on visual interpretation of LiDAR-derived hillshade and slope raster.
Process_Date: 20130815
Completeness_Report:
Clifflines were only created for areas that are shown in the tsunami evacuation maps (2012).
