1922 Digitized Shoreline for Breton Island, Louisiana (Geographic, NAD83)

Description

1922 Digitized Shoreline for Breton Island, Louisiana (Geographic, NAD83) consists of vector shoreline data that were derived from a set of National Ocean Service (NOS) raster shoreline maps (often called T-sheet or TP-sheet maps) created for Breton Island in 1922. In 2002, NOAA published digitized shorelines for T-sheet (T-3920), which were subsequently edited by USGS staff for input into the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) Version 4.0, where area and shoreline change analyses could be conducted.
