GIS in Water Resources Term Projects

Each year the students in the GIS in Water Resources course write an html term paper summarizing a piece of original investigation in the use of GIS to study water or related environmental issues. The term projects for the Fall 2004 semester are presented on this CD following the course exercises.  Term projects from the previous eight years are available from Dr. Maidment's webpage. (Note: powerpoint presentations of students are under names.)
