SHOALS Toolbox: Software to Support Visualization and Analysis of Large, High-Density Data Sets

Abstract

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) outlines the capabilities of SHOALS Toolbox, a stand-alone software package designed to facilitate the use of SHOALS (Scanning Hydrographic Operational Airborne Lidar Survey) and other high-density survey data in engineering analyses. The SHOALS Toolbox comprises a suite of tools with which to visualize, manipulate, and analyze SHOALS data, in keeping with current U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) computer and engineering analysis standards. The SHOALS Toolbox is available free to all USACE elements and their contractors.
