2005 Digitized Shoreline for Breton Island, Louisiana (Geographic, NAD83)

Description

Shorelines were derived from the U.S. Geological Survey Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center’s Digital Orthophoto Quadrangle (DOQ) images collected on November 17, 2005. This dataset contains digitized shorelines created from the USGS imagery for Breton Island, Louisiana. Shorelines were digitized in ArcMap 10.2.2 so they could be used for area and shoreline change analysis, using the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) version 4.0.
