Data Locations

The map below provides a spatial view of the low-resolution JPEG figures used in this Data Series. Streamgage graphs, covering southern Louisiana for the period of August 23-September 13, 2008, have also been added. These dates correspond with Hurricane Gustav's landfall in Louisiana on September 1st, and also shows the path of Hurricane Ike south-southwest of the area, before striking Texas on the 13th of September. The graphs were downloaded on September 17, 2008, from the USGS National Water Information System-Real Time Streamflow Data for Louisiana site. By clicking the numbered areas on the map, either a USGS streamgage graph or a screen-resolution JPEG image of the before and after satellite imagery that makes up this Data Series will open. For a high-resolution, 24x36 inch PDF file of the individual before and after image maps in this series, right-click on the PDF text and approximate file size information, following each figure title in the table below, and save the linked file.
