- HYDSYS
For Drainage - managing storm drainage systems
- HYDSYS is software designed to help you
analyze storm drainage systems. Using selected hydrologic methods, it
covers the entire analytic process from the determination of a design
rainstorm to model calibration, and the production of hyetographs,
hydrographs, plans and profiles. Using your pipe network and zoning
designations for paved and grassed contributing areas, it will
highlight undersized pipes and will calculate the required pipe
diameters, capacities and velocities. Features which allow models to
be linked together make it possible to analyze systems of virtually
any size or complexity. Using HYDSYS, you may simulate the drainage of
a subdivision before and after development and then determine the
attenuating effects of stormwater detention ponds. It will enable you
to predict a system's performance during extreme or high return period
rainstorms or to identify and correct deficiencies of developing urban
drainage systems.

- Erosion Process
- The waterfront is the scene of the most
dramatic interactions between water, wind, and land. Moving air and
water carry material from place to place, eroding and depositing,
constantly changing the shoreline. If erosion is not balanced by
accretion,the shore will be washed away. Understanding the dynamics
of erosion and accretion along the shore is important: to safeguard
your property, you need to know how to work with these natural
forces, not against them.

Information System (GNIS)
- The Geographic Names Information System
(GNIS), developed by the USGS in cooperation with the U.S. Board on
Geographic Names (BGN), contains information about almost 2 million
physical and cultural geographic features in the United States. The
Federally recognized name of each feature described in the data base
is identified, and references are made to a feature's location by
State, county, and geographic coordinates. The GNIS is our Nation's
official repository of domestic geographic names information.
Information about foreign geographic feature names can be obtained
from the GEOnet Names Server, developed and maintained by the
National Imagery and Mapping Agency.

- "The Geospatial Data Clearinghouse is a
collection of over 50 spatial data servers, primarily in North
America, that have digital geographic data primarily for use in
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) image processing systems, or
other modelling software. These data collections can be searched
through a single interface based on their descriptions or

- The Global Land Information System (GLIS)
is an interactive computer system developed by the U.S. Geological
Survey (USGS) for scientists seeking sources of information about
the Earth's land surfaces. GLIS contains abstract, description ,and
search information for each data set. Through GLIS, scientists can
evaluate data sets, determine their availability, place online
requests for products, or, in some cases, download products. GLIS
also offers online samples of earth science data.

- CORPSCON
- "CORPSCON, Version 4.11, is an MS-DOS based
program which allows the user to convert coordinates between
Geographic, State Plane and Universal Transverse (UTM) on both North
American Datum of 1927 (NAD 27) and North American Datum of 1983(NAD
83). CORPSCON uses the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) program NADCON
to convert between NAD 27 and NAD 83. CORPSCON, Version 4.11, also
performs vertical conversions to and from the National Geodetic
Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD 29) and the North American Vertical
Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). Vertical conversions can be performed for
the continental U.S. only. Also, CORPSCON does not perform
conversions based on High Accuracy Reference Networks (HARN's). To
perform conversion on HARN's, NADCON, Version 2.10, must be used.
NADCON can be obtain from the National Geodetic Survey. "
