Louisiana is one of the most vulnerable states for coastal land loss due to climate change and sea level rises. The Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority's Master Plan Data Viewer maps the various coastal flood risks, both current and future, plus provides tips for residents to make their communities, businesses, and houses safer and more resilient.

The viewer maps future land change, storm surge flood risk, coastal vegetation, and social vulnerability plus proposed state action around restoration, structural protection, and nonstructural risk reduction.
