Shoreline mapping of St. Andrew Bay - how resilient are we?

Scientists and volunteers will map the shoreline of St. Andrew Bay to determine the percentage
of shoreline that is eroded, bulkheaded, or vegetated. Teams will collect data by traveling within
the bay by boat and using a drone to collect video. Teams will then ground truth the data to
ensure its accuracy. Still photos and video will be taken of eroded shorelines. Features will be
geo-referenced using GPS technology. Maps will be created that show eroded, vegetated, and
bulkheaded shorelines.

Coastal communities that are more resilient to changes in sea level and to flooding will be
economically viable. By determining how much of the shoreline is eroded, community leaders
will be able to identify areas that need restoration. Vegetated shorelines reduce flooding and
damage to property.

RESTORE Act Direct Component eligible activity that the project undertakes (Check only
those that apply)
Activities Eligible for Funding
Restoration and protection of the natural resources, ecosystems, fisheries, marine and
wildlife habitats, beaches, and coastal wetlands of the Gulf Coast region
Mitigation of damage to fish, wildlife, and natural resources
Implementation of a federally approved marine, coastal, or comprehensive conservation
management plan, including fisheries monitoring
Workforce development and job creation
Improvements to or on State parks located in coastal areas affected by the Deepwater
Horizon oil spill
Infrastructure projects benefitting the economy or ecological resources, including port
infrastructure
Coastal flood protection and related infrastructure
Planning assistance
Administrative costs of complying with this subsection
Promotion of tourism in the Gulf Coast Region, including recreational fishing
Promotion of the consumption of seafood harvested from the Gulf Coast Region
Vegetated shorelines reduce flooding caused by storm surges, reduce erosion which enhances
property values, and increases essential fish habitat. They also remove the pollutants that run
off the land. By mapping St. Andrew Bay, we will know what areas need to be revegetated.
St. Andrew Bay supports some of the best shallow water fishing in the Panhandle. Guides from
the region bring clients here to fish for sea trout and redfish. Birders marvel at the diversity of
shorebirds in our bay, and people love to swim, boat, and water ski in these waters.
Since the oil spill, everyone has been talking about restoration. But what areas need
restoration? How will this restoration be monitored? By mapping St. Andrew Bay, RMA will help
community leaders determine which areas need the most intervention.
