Montana StreamStats: a water-resources web application

The USGS completed a study to develop a StreamStats application for Montana, compute streamflow characteristics at gaging stations, and develop regional regression equations to estimate streamflow characteristics at ungaged sites. StreamStats is a Web-based geographic information system (GIS) application created by the USGS to provide users with access to an assortment of data and analytical tools. StreamStats provides streamflow and basin characteristics for USGS gaging stations and provides tools to delineate drainage basins, compute basin character­istics, and solve regression equations to estimate streamflow characteristics at ungaged sites.
