StreamStats: Interactive Water Resources Planning and Analysis System

Visit Application

Description

StreamStats is a web-based Geographic Information System (GIS) application developed by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) that provides users with access to spatial analytical tools for water-resources planning and management. The application allows users to select specific geographic areas across the United States through an interactive map interface, where they can identify study areas, select various hydrological scenarios, and build comprehensive reports related to streamflow statistics and watershed characteristics. StreamStats integrates multiple data layers including base maps and national datasets, enabling water resource professionals, engineers, and researchers to analyze drainage basin characteristics, estimate streamflow statistics, and access critical information for flood frequency analysis, low-flow statistics, and other water-related studies. The tool operates through a step-by-step process where users first identify their area of interest using the map or search functionality, then proceed through scenario selection and report generation phases, making it an essential resource for anyone involved in water resource management, environmental planning, or hydrological analysis across the United States.
