Hurricane Laura Overwash Extents

Description

The National Assessment of Coastal Change Hazards project project at the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) exists to understand and predict storm impacts to our nation's coastlines. This geospatial dataset defines the alongshore extent of overwash sediments deposited along the Louisiana coast and attributed to coastal processes during [Atlantic Basin] Hurricane Laura, which made landfall in the U.S. on August 27, 2020.
