SOFIA - Evaluation of Streamflow-data in Florida, OFR-70008

An evaluation was made of the streamflow data available for Florida to provide guidelines for planning future programs. The basic steps in the evaluation procedure were (1) definition of the long-term goals of streamflow-data program in quantitative form, (2) examination and analysis of all available data to determine which goals have already been met, and (3) consideration of alternate programs and techniques to meet remaining objectives. It was found that with few exceptions, the goals could not be met by generalization of the data for gaged basins by regression analysis. However, information was developed that can be merged and plans for the future data program were developed that eventually will attain as many of the goals as possible within the limits of available funds. Guidelines developed as part of the evaluation are presented for use in modifying the present streamflow-data program to meet future needs.
