Flood-Tracking Chart for the Chattahoochee River near Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia

Proceedings of the 2007 Georgia Water Resources Conference, March 27-29, 2007, Athens, Georgia.The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) operates a hydrologic monitoring network in the Chattahoochee River Basin (see Fig. 1), with support from the City of Atlanta, Georgia, as well as Federal, State, and local agencies. The network is comprised of several automated river stage stations that transmit stage data through satellite telemetry to the USGS Georgia Water Science Center in Atlanta, Georgia (see Fig. 2). Using data collected by this network, the USGS has compiled a flood-tracking chart for the Chattahoochee River near Metropolitan Atlanta.Sponsored and Organized by: U.S. Geological Survey, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Natural Resources Conservation Service, The University of Georgia, Georgia State University, Georgia Institute of TechnologyThis book was published by the Institute of Ecology, The University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602-2202.

Flood-Tracking Chart, Flint River Basin, Georgia

Proceedings of the 2003 Georgia Water Resources Conference, held April 23-24, 2003, at the University of Georgia.The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) published the first release of the Flood-Tracking Chart for the Flint River Basin (USGS Open-File Report 01-325) (shown in Figure 1) in December of 2001. The Flood Tracking Chart accompanies the USGS real-time hydrologic data to provide the public with an easy method to track and compare floods in the Flint River Basin. The Flood-Tracking Chart summarizes historical flood events at USGS real-time streamflow gaging stations to help maintain public awareness of the hydrologic conditions in the Flint River Basin
