Project Background
This project was to develop a statewide analysis and web-app that worked at HUC-8, HUC-12, and NHDPlus Catchment scales, with special attention paid to dairy and poultry agriculture. The app would be used in conjunction with supporting data and apps in the Louisiana Freshwater Assessment (FWA) to support conservation decisions at the watershed and land parcel scale.
