GIS for Surface Water: Using the National Hydrography Dataset enables scientists, managers, and students to analyze the vital surface waters of the United States by combining the ready-to-use powers of a comprehensive database of the nation's waters and the ArcGIS platform for geographic data analysis and mapping. This book explains how the water that exists on the landscape has been translated into a computer database, and how data about the water, such as chemistry and fish habitat, is linked to this database.
