Coastal Hydrographics Techniques (CHT) personnel in support of the Airborne Bathymetry System (ABS) traveled on two separate occasions to the CERC FRF at Duck, N. C., to provide ground truth data for the overflights of the system. The following data report gives a preliminary look at the data and provides some preliminary analysis and simple calculations using the collected data for both CHT and ABS applications. Keywords: Optical properties; Radiometry; Oceanographic data.
