The Alabama Barrier Island Restoration Assessment project focused exclusively on Dauphin Island, a significant barrier island along the northern Gulf of Mexico. This restoration feasibility study effort required data collection and analysis of many data types (e.g., hydro, sediment, currents, etc.) through the project’s life cycle to assess restoration measures and their effects on the sustainability of Dauphin Island. As such, the project requires a data management plan (DMP) to address issues such as data delivery format, organizational strategies, internal data sharing, archival processes, and product dissemination.
