New high-resolution Chesapeake Bay Watershed stream maps (IMAGE)
Caption
A newly released hydrography data set for the Chesapeake Bay Watershed identified many more streams than the previous dataset. This example shows the new data in blue compared to the older maps in red. The new stream maps doubled documented stream miles in the watershed and used a novel, AI-supported method that is faster, costs less, and is more accurate than previous methods.
