  • This data set consists of an unsupervised classification of land and water for the year 1994 for the CWPPRA project, Barataria Bay Waterway Restoration (BA-19). The data are generated using color infrared mosaicked imagery for that year. The data are used by project managers for each site in order to get a general overview of land loss. The data can be compared to the same type of data from previous years to conduct trend analysis.

  • Includes project and reference area. This data set consists of mosaicked color infrared 1994 aerial photography for the CWPPRA project, Barataria Bay Waterway Restoration (BA-19). The data are used as base map data for either land/water analysis and/or habitat change analysis. The imagery also serves as a visual tool for project managers to assist them in land loss or any obvious problems within the project boundary.

Wetland Value Assessment

  • Project Area (acres): 510
  • Average Annual Habitat Units*: 151
  • Acres Created / Restored: 445
  • Acres Protected: 0
  • Total Net Acres: 445

* Habitat Units represent a numerical combination of habitat quality (Habitat Suitability Index) and habitat quantity (acres) within a given area at a given point in time. Average Annual Habitat Units represent the average number of Habitat Units within any given year over the project life for a given area.
