SC StreamStats Phase II: Additional Tools and Layers for Enhanced Workflow and Efficiency

The objective of Phase II of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) StreamStats is to develop and incorporate additional tools and functionality into the current (2019) application. Added functionality could include a storm runoff model using the South Carolina synthetic hydrograph method, hydrographs for gaging statistics, flow-regulation information, and multipoint delineation for basins. Additional data layers can be developed for such things as rainfall distribution, hydrologic regions, and hydrologic soil groups as well as an update with the National Land Cover Database 2016 data for basin characteristics. Furthermore, methods for automating lidar updates can be implemented to process and deliver the latest data into StreamStats in a more cost-effective manner. Many of the functions will provide tools for the South Carolina Department of Transportation and other engineers and water-resource planners which are outside of the scope of the National StreamStats application.
