| REFERENCES: Overall project references (cited above) |
| Elevation and Land Use data were obtained from EPA's BASINS 3.0 program data layers for Region 4. |
| Land Use: This is land use/land cover digital data collected by USGS and converted to ARC/INFO by the EPA. This data which resides in EPA's Spatial Data Library (ESDLS), is useful for environmental assessment of land use patterns with respect to water quality analysis, growth management, and other types of environmental impact assessment.

| Elevation: Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is the terminology adopted by the USGS to describe terrain elevation data sets in a digital raster form. The standard DEM consists of a regular array of elevations cast on a designated coordinate projection system. 1-degree DEMs (3- by 3-arc second data spacing) provides coverage in 1- by 1-degree blocks. The basic elevation model is produced by or for the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA), but is distributed by the USGS in the DEM data record format. Coverage is for the United States.
