Introduction

The purpose of these exercises is to provide instruction in the use of the Arcview and Arc/Info geographic information systems in their application to hydrology and water resources problems. All the data files required for them are available via anonymous ftp from ftp.crwr.utexas.edu in directory /pub/gisclass. These exercises are taught by David R. Maidment in the Dept of Civil Engineering, University of Texas at Austin. Each exercise normally takes 3-4 hours to be completed. If you don't have access to the ArcView software needed to do the exercises, you can still read through them and understand the nature of the analysis from the instructions and pictures presented there.
