Bayou Dupont Marsh and Ridge Creation (BA-0048): 2016 habitat classification

Metadata Updated: July 6, 2024

The Louisiana State Legislature created the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in order to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. The wetland restoration plans developed pursuant to these acts 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 aerial imagery for the Bayou Dupont Marsh and Ridge Creation (BA-0048) project for 2016. This data set is used as a basemap for habitat 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 habitat classification is performed on specific CWPPRA sites to help assess landscape changes.
