2015 Map of Morgan Harbor OE E

About this map

Point Comfort serves as the primary terrestrial landmark in this coastal area within Saint Bernard Parish, Louisiana. This 2015 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates the intersection of the vast Gulf of Mexico with the low-lying marshlands of the Mississippi River delta region. The map provides precise Public Land Survey System data, delineating the boundaries of township and range sections such as t14s r19e and t14s r20e. Because much of the landscape consists of open water and tidal flats, the topography is defined by the shifts in the shoreline and the subtle transition from marine to terrestrial environments. It is a vital record of the fragile coastal geometry in an era of significant environmental change for the Louisiana coast.
