1962, Open-File Report 62-121
Accurate measurements of drainage networks are necessary for studies in many scientific disciplines, especially hydrology. To this end, topographic maps must show accurate classification as well as a consistent pattern of the stream network.A recent study in Georgia has developed two photo-interpretive keys which permit accurate drainage classification during the...
