U.S. Fish & Wildlife ServiceThis project area reflects a mapping initiative in West Virginia to be displayed in a story map for the Advanced Water Mapping Analytics (AWMA) working group. The AWMA story map is a product of an interagency workgroup partnering to align the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of the Army's (Army) water resource interests with the U.S. Department of Interior's (DOI) authoritative and ever-improving inland water mapping datasets and extensive expertise in hydrologic modeling. The federal partners propose the Advanced Water Mapping and Analytics Initiative to accelerate improvements to the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) and National Wetlands Inventory (NWI). This initiative will use state of the science approaches, enhanced water data discovery, and innovations in hydrologic modeling techniques in partnership with the National Hydrography Infrastructure (NHI). The group will leverage these improvements to develop an interactive online mapping system, initially focused on supporting Clean Water Act implementation, that enables users to access, visualize, and consume improved water data. This initiative is integral to other interagency efforts led by OMB, the Water Subcabinet, and the Internet of Water to achieve better water resource management through close collaboration and engagement.ArcGIS FeatureLayerhttps://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/2a80e32727aa4b58a3ad79e849748c99_0engU.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Open DataPublicFWS HQ ES NWI West Virginia Project Area [United States]Web servicesUnited StatesLast Modified: 2021-08-31
