Abstract
GIS information sources used by the Office of Hydraulics to improve the accuracy and efficiency hydrologic computations will be presented. A variety of information sources will be discussed with an emphasis on DEM data obtained from Indiana's recent state-wide mapping initiative. Sources and limitations of the data will be discussed, and techniques for utilizing this data will be introduced.
