Description

This dataset provides real-time kinematic (RTK) GPS elevation measurements, along with horizontal and vertical precision errors, obtained along transects near Louisiana's Coastwide Reference Monitoring Systems (CRMS) sites and on Mike Island in Wax Lake Delta (WLD). The data were collected during the Delta-X Spring Campaign from 2021-03-24 to 2021-04-02. The data are provided in comma-separated values (CSV) format.
