![aerial images - UAS high-resolution drone elevation and bathymetry surveys (base map 9 August 2022) of shoreline retreat at the original Gay pile location after bluff removal. Overlays along the beach edge trace shorelines in 2009, 2016, and 2022. The 78 m retreat over 6 years (2016–2022); equates to a 13 m/yr rate. The previous, nearly constant, long-term retreat rate prior to 2009 averaged 7.9 m/yr (ca. 26′) [7,57]. The original Jacobsville Sandstone shoreline, before stamp sands were discharged, is marked by the red border in the far-left upper region. Note white concrete basements of the two mills and remnants of both wooden and broken concrete launders in the northern region. Environmental recovery is beginning, as benthic organisms and fish are returning to clear underwater stretches of the bedrock shelf, where waves have removed stamp sands. Scattered trees (many birch) are beginning to colonise what is left of the original Gay Pile surface.](https://files.techhub.social/media_attachments/files/114/181/078/126/458/223/original/308a656b51dd22fa.png "aerial images - UAS high-resolution drone elevation and bathymetry surveys (base map 9 August 2022) of shoreline retreat at the original Gay pile location after bluff removal.

“A CNN Reporter requested data to portray the depth of the Potomac River near the site of the tragic plane and helicopter crash. The Digital Elevation Model Bathymetry (DEM) Team responded with information on how to use NCEI’s high-resolution Continuously Updated Digital Elevation Models (CUDEMs) to generate a map of the Potomac River and provided an example map…”

[lots of new data added in the last 6 months]
“This online tool allows a user to search for and download lidar, imagery, and land cover data by user-defined geography. Once found, the data can be downloaded with an easy-to-use checkout interface. Users can select from multiple file formats, projections, and datums.
Features:
• View image services for applicable data
• View technical specifications and metadata for each data set
• Access data in several projections and datums…”

Was just thinking about the shape of the east coast (the curved crest shapes) and hurricanes, and whaddyaknow, there seems to be a link! I'm sure it's not as simple as that, though, can anyone out there recommend further reading on the topic?
