Abstract | (unpublished) Digital coastlines and cliff edges from the Canadian Beaufort Sea were generated from accurately georeferenced aerial photography. These coastlines and cliff edges provide an
accurate representation of the land/water interface at a given time and position along the coastline. |
Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published) This Open File contains a GIS data compilation of historical coastline positions that have been used for coastal change assessment. GIS data coverage
consists of vector lines spanning the time interval between 1947-2008 in Mackenzie Delta, Tuktoyaktuk, North Head and Wolfe Spit in the Beaufort Sea. |
