Merrick will provide GPS and bathymetric surveys, LIDAR data acquisition, one-meter contours, half-meter bathymetric contours, planimetric feature and breakline mapping, color aerial photography, and color digital orthophotography with a 30-centimeter pixel resolution. Data will be delivered in formats compatible with ESRI and Intergraph geographic information system software. The 278 square mile project area includes portions of the Yellowstone River channel and floodplain in the counties of Yellowstone, Stillwater, and Dawson in the state of Montana.
