The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with DuPage County Stormwater Management Department, maintains a watershed data management (WDM) database of hourly meteorological and hydrologic data for use in a near real-time streamflow simulation system. These data are stored daily in the WDM database by USGS staff and are initially provisional and subject to change due to periodic equipment malfunctions and/or weather related issues. This system is used for the management and operation of reservoirs and other flood-control structures in the West Branch DuPage River (WBDR) watershed in DuPage County, Illinois. The WDM database is updated with quality-assured and quality-controlled (QA/QC) meteorological and hydrologic data for each water year (WY) and is named as WBDRXX.wdm where XX represents the last two digits of the WY.
Child items in this folder contain annual updates of this database.
