Texas Wetlands Status and Trends Online GIS Viewer

Summary

The University of Texas - Bureau of Economic Geology (UT-BEG) has completed extensive studies on the distribution, abundance, and status of wetlands and aquatic habitats along the Texas coast, providing critical information on the preservation and protection of wetland functions and uses. Based on study findings, UT-BEG produced a series of GIS datasets and reports for coastal scientists, managers, planners, and decision makers to use as guidance for mitigation/restoration projects. In this project, UT-BEG will develop a user-friendly, interactive, web-based display of GIS-based maps of historical and current Texas wetland types, boundaries, and distribution.
