In order to maintain the accuracy and completeness of the National Hydrography Dataset at a 1:24,000 scale, it is critical that the data is readily available to willing and qualified individuals at their local desktops. Using ArcIMS technology, it is possible to create an Internet accessible application that will enable registered individuals to identify and correct errors in existing data, as well as make updates in a timely fashion online. Texas Natural Resources Information System will demonstrate how NHD data, through an application on the Texas Geography Network can be improved and updated by regional experts at remote locations.
