Delaware Shoreline Inventory
The Shoreline Inventory for Delaware occurred in a series of phases beginning in 2005.
Phase 1 - Indian River Watershed
This Delaware shoreline inventory was initiated with funding from the United States Environmental Protection Agency to develop a Tidal Wetlands Protocol which included data development for the Shoreline Inventory for the Indian River Watershed.
