Abstract
This line data layer represents hydrography for Buffalo County, Wisconsin in 2017. It is a feature class within the geodatabase, Buffalo_HydroLine_2017.gdb.[Flowlines include all line features from the US Geological Survey's 1:24,000-scale topographic map series such as perennial and intermittent streams etc. A large portion of the WDNR's Waterbody Identification Codes (WBICs) have been added to the linework along with officially recognized water body names from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) database. Flowlines were created with M (measures) and Z (elevation) values to accommodate placement of user data through a linear referencing system.]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production, or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [Linear features representing streams and artificial flow through water. Linear features representing streams and artificial flow through water. These features have been clipped to the Buffalo County geographic extent from the WD_HYDRO_FLOWLINE_LN_24K feature class. This is part of the larger WDNR_HYDRO_24K_GEODATABASE]
