Description:
Abstract:
The connected network of streams and waterways of
Pennsylvania are indicated as single lines in this
coverage. Waterways are given connected topology to show
the direction of flow from the headwaters of the stream
through the watershed to the extent of the coverage. With
ARC Network data can be used for watershed modelling.
Purpose:
Educational, watershed modelling
