The Mississippi batture stretches from Cairo, Illinois, to the Port of Baton Rouge in Louisiana and covers approximately 2 million acres. BatturePoly.shp was built directly from BattureArcs.shp. Upstream of Baton Rouge, the batture averages 6.5 miles wide and is up to 15 miles wide in some places, according to an article by scientists at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center, or ERDC.</dc:description><dc:format>ArcGIS FeatureLayer</dc:format><dc:identifier>https://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/e14bd1de0d6040329b21b93e286a4349_0</dc:identifier><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:publisher>U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Open Data</dc:publisher><dc:rights>Public</dc:rights><dc:title>Lower Mississippi River (LMR) batture definition [United States]</dc:title><dc:type>Web services</dc:type><dc:coverage>United States</dc:coverage><dc:date>Last Modified: 2024-08-02</dc:date></oai_dc:dc>
