Abstract
The goals of this project were to use Geographic Information System technology to:
1) To develop a computationally efficient hydrologic model of the Cool Run Watershed based on existing GIS layers and data
2) To correct local data anomalies to make the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) support true runoff patterns in the Cool Run Watershed
3) To compile all important and relevant GIS data for use by others in forecast modeling and developing best management practices to protect the Cool Run Watershed
4) To model runoff impacts from each different land use within the Cool Run Watershed
