About this map

Atchafalaya Basin Floodway dominates this low-lying landscape where the borders of Iberia, St. Martin, and Assumption Parishes converge. The terrain is defined by a dense labyrinth of water bodies, reflecting the intricate drainage and flood control systems of southern Louisiana. Major arteries like the Intracoastal Waterway and the Old River cut through a network of meandering streams, including Bayou Postillion and Bayou Long. This environment highlights the complex relationship between natural hydrology and engineering, as the region functions as a critical spillway and navigational corridor. Topographic details reveal how the land is segmented by varied forks such as West Fork Bayou Long and Middle Fork Bayou Long, illustrating the alluvial character of the basin before it meets the Gulf coast.
