Data

Good data management enables the location, sharing, and reuse of data, and reduces the redundancy of data. Data management tools and best practices can also help to make data more accessible and discoverable to our partners and stakeholders. Below is a list of select Data Resources from the Gulf of Mexico region developed to support restoration programs in the Gulf of Mexico.

East Marsh Island Marsh Creation (TV-21): CRMS-like 01 and CRMS-like 02

The Louisiana State Legislature created 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 coa

Post-Hurricane Gustav Coastal Oblique Aerial Photographs Collected from the Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana, to Isles Dernieres Barrier Islands Refuge, Louisiana, September 4, 2008

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), as part of the National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards project conducts baseline and storm-response photography missions to document and understand the changes in the vulnerability of the Nation's coasts to extreme storms and longer-term processes related to sediment supply and sea-level rise. Hurricane Gustav made landfall on the Louisiana coastline near C

Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) 2015 land-water classifications

Wetland restoration efforts conducted by the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in Louisiana rely on monitoring efforts to determine the efficacy of these efforts. The Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) was developed to assist in a multiple-reference approach that uses aspects of hydrogeomorphic functional assessments and probabilistic sampling for monitor

Beach Slopes of Florida: Bradenton Beach to Clearwater Beach

The National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards project derives features of beach morphology from lidar elevation data for the purpose of understanding and predicting storm impacts to our nation's coastlines. This dataset defines mean beach slopes along the United States Southeast Gulf of Mexico from Bradenton Beach to Clearwater Beach, Florida for data collected at various times between 1998 an
