West Bay Sediment Diversion (MR-03): 2021 land-water classification

The Louisiana State Legislature created the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in order to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. The wetland restoration plans developed pursuant to these acts specifically require an evaluation of the effectiveness of each coastal wetlands restoration project in achieving long-term solutions to arresting coastal wetlands loss. This data set includes mosaicked aerial photographs for the West Bay Sediment Diversion (MR-03) project for 2021. This data is used as a basemap land-water classification. It also serves as a visual tool for project managers to help them identify any obvious problems or land loss within their project boundary. To better evaluate the effectiveness of restoration efforts, a land-water classification is performed on specific CWPPRA sites to help assess landscape changes.

路易斯安那州立法机构设立《海岸湿地规划、保护与修复法案》（Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act，缩写CWPPRA），旨在保护、修复、营造并改善路易斯安那州的海岸湿地。依据该法案制定的湿地修复计划，明确要求评估每一项海岸湿地修复项目在实现长期遏制海岸湿地流失目标方面的有效性。本数据集涵盖2021年西湾泥沙分流工程（West Bay Sediment Diversion，项目编号MR-03）的拼接航空影像。该数据可作为基底地图的水陆分类基准，同时亦可作为可视化工具，协助项目管理人员识别项目边界内存在的明显问题或土地流失状况。为更精准地评估修复工作的成效，研究人员会针对特定CWPPRA站点开展水陆分类作业，以辅助景观变化评估。
