2024 Map of Breton Islands SE
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
Japan Island and the neighboring waters of Japan Outside Pond occupy a precarious position along the edge of the Mississippi River Delta. This 2024 survey documents the fragile geography of Plaquemines Parish as it transitions into the open Gulf of Mexico. The area is characterized by shifting barrier islands and coastal wetlands, where small landmasses like Japan Island serve as critical markers in an ever-changing maritime environment. For researchers of coastal Louisiana, this map provides a precise record of the contemporary shoreline and hydrological boundaries, showing the current extent of these named features before further environmental transformation.
