Lake Hermitage Marsh Creation (BA-0042) 2024 land-water classification

The Louisiana State Legislature established the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. Restoration plans developed under CWPPRA require evaluating the effectiveness of each project in achieving long-term solutions to coastal wetlands loss. This data set includes geospatial data for the Lake Hermitage Marsh Creation (BA-0042) land-water classification project for 2024. To better assess restoration effectiveness, land-water classification is performed on specific CWPPRA sites to monitor landscape changes over time.
