This dataset contains a compilation of notable Nature\u2011Based Solutions (NBS) projects within the State of Texas. It supports the Texas Water Development Board\u2019s (TWDB) Nature\u2011Based Solutions web application by providing spatial and descriptive information about projects that incorporate natural or nature\u2011based features for flood mitigation, ecosystem enhancement, or floodplain management.<\/span><\/p>

The dataset is not exhaustive. It includes projects identified from publicly available sources, program documentation, TWDB partner outreach, and other reputable datasets. Projects may include but are not limited to: floodplain restoration, land conservation, wetland enhancement, riparian buffers, green stormwater infrastructure, coastal restoration, and similar nature\u2011based approaches.<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>", "licenseInfo": "
