    • RESTORE Sponsored Research Project: Living shoreline site suitability model transfer for selected water bodies within the Gulf of Mexico: A GIS and remote sensing-based approach

    Metadata Updated: March 15, 2024

    This project will adapt an existing computer model for assessing the suitability of a site for construction of a living shoreline, apply the model to Perdido Bay/Wolf Bay/Ono Island complex in coastal Alabama; Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana; and Galveston Bay, Texas, and develop an interactive decision support tool that allows for a rapid assessment of a site.

    Lineage In deciding whether a living shoreline is an appropriate solution for reducing erosion at a particular site, a living shoreline suitability computer model can be used to provide recommended upland and shoreline best management practices. This project will customize an existing living shoreline suitability model developed by the Virginia Institute of Marine Science to work in Perdido Bay/Wolf Bay/Ono Island complex in coastal Alabama; Lake Pontchartrain, Louisiana; and Galveston Bay, Texas. In addition, the developers will create an interactive decision support tool for these areas as well as Tampa Bay, Florida, where model adaptation is already underway, to illustrate the principles of the basic model and allow users to interact with it.
