The slopes were calculated while extracting shoreline position from lidar point cloud data collected between 1997 and 2018. The shoreline positions have been previously published, but the slopes have not. A reference baseline was defined, and then 20-meter equally-spaced cross-shore beach transects were created perependicular to the baseline. All data points within 1-meter (along-shore) of each transect were associated with that transect. For each transect, the points on the foreshore were identified, and a linear regression was fit through the foreshore points. Beach...
