Gulf of Mexico Barrier Islands

- Description:
- Barrier Island maps were derived from NOS shorelines. First, a selection of barrier-island NOS shoreline of the U.S. Gulf of Mexico was made. Shorelines were dissolved and gaps between lines were closed. Line data was transformed to polygon data using ET Geowizard ArcGIS extension. Final polygons were edited as necessary and small residual features were removed. Barrier names were assigned using GNIS and R.A. Davis' book as resources.
