  Description:
    Abstract: This dataset represents the inundated area for Suwanee Creek from the Confluence of Ivy Creek to the Noblin Ridge Drive Bridge, Gwinnett County, Georgia. The inundated area is based on the stage collected at Suwanee Creek at Suwanee, Georgia (02334885). The number in the name of the dataset corresponds to the stage (gage height) of the gage. For example the grid named "suwanee_7_0" corresponds to a stage of 7.0 at Suwanee Creek at Suwanee, Georgia.
    Purpose:
      This data set was developed to show the inundated area at a particular river stage for the purpose of showing areas that will be flooded.
