Geolocation



Location of Gwynns Falls watershed relative to the Patuxent
watershed, cities of Balitmore and Washington DC

There is still some controversy regarding the contour of the watershed. The "official" watershed delineation does not quite match what we get if we do the watershed delineation based on the elevation data using ARC/INFO watershed program.

For calibration purposes we use the subwatershed ending at
the VIlla-Nova USGS gaging station.
