Service Description: In 2013, Wisconsin DNR partnered with U.S. EPA to develop a model-based assessment tool for all the watersheds in the state. This tool ranks each watershed based on many aspects of watershed condition, including water quality, hydrology, habitat, and biological condition. The assessment results are a modeled prediction of both overall watershed health and vulnerability, which are presented in a series of maps and ranking scores.

Description: The Healthy Watersheds map service provides a series of nested maps and ranked scores for each NHD+ catchment in the state. Each map layer shows scores related to each catchment’s health or vulnerability to future degradation. The map layers are arranged as indices and subindices (in the future we plan to add additional layers showing metric scores that the indices and subindices are based on). The ranked scores can be used to determine which catchments could be prioritized for protection efforts for watersheds that are currently healthy but may be vulnerable to future degradation.

Title: Healthy Watersheds Assessment
Author: Wisconsin Dept. of Natural Resources
Comments: In 2013, Wisconsin DNR partnered with U.S. EPA to develop a model-based assessment tool for all the watersheds in the state. This tool ranks each watershed based on many aspects of watershed condition, including water quality, hydrology, habitat, and biological condition. The assessment results are a modeled prediction of both overall watershed health and vulnerability, which are presented in a series of maps and ranking scores.
Subject: This layer asks, where are our water resources likely to be the healthiest, and which locations may be vulnerable to future degradation.
