Dewberry was selected to provide topobathymetric lidar mapping for the entire Gulf Coast of Florida, beginning in the western Panhandle and continuing south through Naples. This area includes Southwest Gulf – Region IV, Big Bend – Region V, and Panhandle – Region VI.

“We’re excited to support the state of Florida on this important initiative,” says Dewberry Senior Associate and Project Manager Emily Klipp. “The data we collect with our CZMIL SuperNova sensors will be a valuable tool to guide resilience and coastal protection officials as they navigate the increasing environmental challenges faced by the state.”
