Purpose
These flood warning maps, developed by Lower Mississippi-Gulf scientists using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology, aim to provide clear and concise flood risk information to a broad audience.
Audience
The maps are intended for citizens residing in Caddo and Bossier Parishes, Louisiana, as well as federal, state, and local partners involved in flood preparedness and response efforts.
Benefits
The maps come in three variations:
Bossier Parish Map: This map focuses specifically on flood risks within Bossier Parish.
Caddo Parish Map: This map provides detailed information on potential flood risks in Caddo Parish.
Combined Caddo-Bossier Map: This comprehensive map offers a unified view of flood risks across both Caddo and Bossier Parishes.
By offering visual representations of data, all three maps make it easier for everyone to understand flood risks and potential impacts in their respective areas. This clear understanding is crucial for informed decision-making during flood events.
