| The Technical
Services Bureau of IDWR has begun a project to bring new
tools to surface water rights accounting. The project's goal
is to make water rights accounting an open and transparent
process that can be examined by the public via the Internet. |
|
| Within the
Technical Services Bureau, the Hydrology Section and the
Geospatial Technology Section are working together to
achieve three project objectives: |
1. Redesign
and simplify the current water rights accounting models into
a GIS environment
with integrated tools for data
visualization and plotting. |
|
2. Make
model input data and results accessible over the Internet. |
|
3. Develop and integrate QA/QC procedures.
|
|
| The model input and
output data can be accessed in two ways. The first is as
tabular data and the second is by means of a spatial query
from an interactive map. |
|
|

Tabular data are
available at http://maps2.idwr.idaho.gov/qWRAccounting/WRA_Select.aspx
or from the button labeled "Tabular Data" on the
interactive map. |
