Ipswich Watershed

Hydrology - Stream Centerlines - Ipswich Watershed - Idrisi Raster File.

Abstract: 

This datalayer is part of a group of layers used for research in the Ipswich River Watershed. This datalayer was rasterized from the vector line data
set “ip30_hydrology”, a modified version of the hydrology layer available from MassGIS for the Ipswich Watershed. To be used to generate a
hydrologically corrected Digital Elevation Model, and to examine sampling site catchments or sub-watersheds within the Ipswich River Watershed.

Data set ID: 

251

Keywords: 

Short name: 

GIS_ip30_info_hydrology

Data sources: 

GIS_ip30_info_hydrology

Methods: 

Downloaded from MassGIS, imported into ArcView 3.2 as ArcView shapefiles.
Edited to simplify drainage within wetlands, and to match orthophotos of the watershed as provided on MassGIS. Edited data was imported into IDRISI format, and extended to the Ipswich study area window. This layer contains information only in those cells included inside the towns mask, therefore is consistent with all other “info” category maps.
