About this map

Bayou Teche winds through the heart of this landscape, connecting the established communities of St. Martinville and New Iberia. The map illustrates a region where the river-centered economy of the past meets modern infrastructure, shown through the tight grid of streets in the historic parish seats and the industrial presence of the BNSF Railway. Between these major hubs, smaller settlements like Keystone, Segura, and Morbihan dot the corridor, reflecting the dense settlement patterns characteristic of Louisiana's Acadiana region.

To the west, the expansive Spanish Lake and its surrounding wetlands contrast with the structured layout of the Louisiana Technical College Teche Campus. Water management is a visible priority across the terrain, from the Sediment Pond near Independent to natural drainage features like Pointe Claire Coulee and Coulee du Portage. The boundary between St. Martin Parish and Iberia Parish zig-zags across the sheet, often following the natural curvature of the bayou.
