The “Louisiana GIS Digital Map – May 2007 Compilation DVD” was published by the Louisiana Oil Spill Coordinator’s Office (LOSCO) / Office of the Governor as a compilation of publicly available geospatial data for oil spill prevention, contingency planning, response, and natural resource damage assessment.

Publication of this two (2) DVD set was funded by LOSCO under the Technical Assistance Program (TAP) to meet the mandates enacted in Louisiana Revised Statues 30:2480 subsection (C) of the Louisiana Oil Spill Prevention and Response Act (OSPRA).

The DVD set is designed to provide easy access to the most recent and essential geospatial data in a compact format. A complete list of the 460 spatial data sources available on this two volume set is available in the la_data_list.txt file. Each disk is organized by spatial data framework theme.

The projects on Volume 1 provide quick access and display of selected data sources in arranged groups. Not all sources are loaded in projects. Volume 2 contains compressed data only that are not available in any project. Refer to the ReadMe file on the DVD for additional information.
