Submitted by atripp on

The Colorado River is the principal source of water for agriculture and riparian vegetation in Arizona, southern California, and southern Nevada. The BOR Lower Colorado Region accounts for water use in each state, verifies water conservation programs, and fulfills other water management information needs in the Lower Colorado Basin.

RiverView: Another Point of View for Remote Sensing

Submitted by atripp on

BOR is a key partner in the Trinity River Restoration Program (TRRP), located in far northern California. Remote sensing for the TRRP includes annual high-resolution aerial photography (0.5-foot pixel resolution), which provides a standard point of view for detecting morphological and vegetation changes to the river channel and floodplain.
