This data release provides tidally corrected shoreline positions for three sites of western Long Island, NY (Rockaway Peninsula, Long Beach, Jones Beach Island). The CSVs are derived from the software CoastSeg (Fitzpatrick and others, 2024). CoastSeg collects satellite images from Google Earth Engine to create shoreline data along with user supplied inputs based on the CoastSat methodology (Vos and others, 2019). Data have been tidally corrected based on beach foreshore slopes (Farris and Webber, 2024). The data can be viewed in either a text or spreadsheet program.
