Summary
Abstract: GISHydro is a computer program used to assemble and evaluate hydrologic models
for watershed analysis. Originally developed in the mid-1980s, the program
combines a database of terrain, land use, and soils data with specialized GIS
tools for assembling data and extracting model parameters.

The primary purpose of the GISHydro program is to assist engineers in
performing watershed analyses, especially to support transportation design
projects, in the State of Maryland.
