Line features indicating shoreline armoring or alternative bank protection methods used as erosion control structures, (such as bulkheads) or organic material (such as anchored logs and debris) that stabilize the shoreline landward of the structure.
The intentions of this data was to determine the extent, condition, and type of armoring along Kitsap County's shorelines.
This data was developed as part of the field inventory for the Kitsap County Nearshore Inventory Program for West Kitsap during the summer of 2008.

Kitsap County Nearshore Inventory Program
Field data collection was accomplished with a Trimble GeoXM field data collector. This model is stated to provide 1 to 3 meter accuracy when the PDOP (Position dilution of precision) value is below 6, with a minimum of 4 satellites in view, above 15 degrees of the horizon. Varying by feature type, 4% - 13% of the data collected fell outside of this PDOP range. During data collection, a wide variety of conditions are encountered that can block the signal for short periods, or reduce the number of satellites found. These conditions include steep slopes along the shore, heavy forested shorelines, and tall urban development.
Inventory data was collected in the field between May 17, 2007 and August 27, 2007. Project area consisted of East Kitsap County shorelines, from Burley Lagoon in the South, to FoulWeather Bluff in the north. Data collection was accomplished with a Trimble GeoXM GPS data collector, and a field crew of two. Daily downloads of collected data occurred using Trimble's Pathfinder Office 3.10 software
