Montana Hydrography Data Stewardship

This document summarizes key discussions from the April 7, 2014 workshop on Montana's Hydrography Data Stewardship. Led by Michael Sweet of the Climate Office, the session emphasized the importance of the Montana Water Information System in facilitating water data discovery and sharing. Participants learned about current challenges, such as missing networks and features, and explored best practices for revision submissions. The workshop encouraged the public to get involved in improving the accuracy of the Montana Hydrography Dataset through contributions and feedback.

  9. Common types of revisions • Revisions to spatial location and geometry • New features • Name updates • Correct flow direction • Feature type revisions (e.gFtype or Fcode)

  10. Options for submitting edits

  11. Edit Submission Form

  12. Track the status of your submission

  13. Best Practices and FAQ

  14. Get Involved • Jointhe Montana Hydrography Workgroup (Google, “MAGIP Hydrography Workgroup”) • NHD Stewardship and Maintenance • Contact: geoinfo@mt.gov • Who can contribute? Anyone…you

  15. Take Home Messages • If you’re looking for water data, think the Montana Water Information System • Montana Hydrography Dataset requests, questions, and edits should be directed to the Montana State Library (geoinfo@mt.gov) • “On-the-ground” knowledge and contribution is critical to the improvement of the Montana Hydrography Dataset. Stay Tuned!
