Pre-Delta-X: UAVSAR Georeferenced Channel Maps, Atchafalaya Basin, LA, USA, 2016, V2

Published by ORNL_DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: February 21, 2026 | Last Modified: 2026-02-17
This dataset provides spatial data on water channels in the estuary of the Atchafalaya Basin of the Mississippi River Delta of coastal Louisiana. These Level-3 (L3) channel maps were developed from interferograms derived from Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAVSAR) data collected on 2016-10-16 (low tides) and 2016-10-17 (high tides). The channel maps define open water paths in hydrodynamic models and are used to evaluate model performance. This is version 2 of this dataset. Data are provided in cloud optimized GeoTIFF format.
