2020 Map of Point au Fer OE S
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
The Gulf of Mexico dominates this coastal survey, where the terrestrial landscape is limited to the marshes of Point Au Fer Island in the northeastern corner. This specialized sheet captures the maritime interface of coastal Louisiana at the parish line between St. Mary Parish and Terrebonne Parish. The presence of Burkes Bayou snaking through the land's edge illustrates the tidal nature of this environment, which is largely defined by open water and shifting coastlines. For those studying the ecological and geographic changes of the Louisiana gulf coast, the map provides a precise location for the primary island boundary during this modern period.
