    • Western Lake Erie Restoration Assessment Dikes

    Metadata Updated: July 20, 2024

    The US Geological Survey (USGS) created the Dikes dataset (version 2.0) as ancillary layer in the Western Lake Erie Restoration Assessment (WLERA) which covers the southwestern shore of Lake Erie. WLERA is a part of the USGS's Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Restoration Assessment (GLCWRA) initiative where coastal areas around the Great Lakes are identified and ranked for potential wetland restoration. The dikes dataset was created to identify human made and naturally occurring dikes or berms which have the potential to block the flow of water between Lake Erie and wetland habits. These potential dikes were outlined by selecting all the areas within the WLERA study area with a slope greater than 12 degrees (derived from the DEM created for WLERA). For more information, see the full data release documentation and the GLCWRA webpage: https://glcwra.wim.usgs.gov/.
