Caernarvon Freshwater Diversion (BS-0008): 1998 Land-Water Classification of the BS-0008 Outfall Area
The Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority develop restoration plans in order to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. The wetland restoration plans developed specifically require an evaluation of the effectiveness of each coastal wetlands restoration project in achieving long-term solutions to arresting coastal wetlands loss. This data set includes mosaicked aerial photographs for the outfall area of the Caernarvon Freshwater Diversion (BS-0008) project for 1998. This data is used as a basemap land-water classification. It also serves as a visual tool for project managers to help them identify any obvious problems or land loss within their project boundary. To better evaluate the effectiveness of restoration efforts, a land-water classification is performed on specific restoration sites to help assess landscape changes.
