In 2012, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with Colorado Springs Utilities selected 10 reaches or study areas along Fountain Creek between Colorado Springs and the confluence of Fountain Creek at the Arkansas River for annual bed and bank characterization and topographic surveys. The 10 selected study areas are approximately 5 to 20 bank-full channel widths in length. The topographic surveys collected point data of location and elevation in the active channel and along both left and right banks and flood plains. Starting in 2012, USGS personnel have collected topographic survey data annually during the winter, spring, spring, or summer using real-time kinematic Global Navigation Satellite Systems. These point data are interpolated to a grid which is used to generate annual digital elevation maps of each study area. These annual maps are used to develop elevation change maps at each study area for each year. The topographic survey data provide an annual assessment of the geomorphic change at each study area.
Layer Information: -Weather Events: Convection in Las Cruces and the Significant Flood Event of 2006 in El Paso are displayed. Clicking on the icon can give information of the phenomena or event. - Major Cities: Major cities and populations are mapped. The bigger the circle the bigger the population of that city. - Observation/ Data collection sites: This layer contains the location of where atmospheric soundings launched from the surface and where in-stu surface observations are gathered. The later includes Weather, Ocean, Lake, River, Water Quality, and Air Quality. - Köppen-Geiger Climate Divisions: General temperatures, precipitation, and latitude define these climate classes. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) defined a classic climate record to be 30 years, so this current map is based of off the average weather an area has experienced from 1981 to 2010. New normals will be calculated in 2021.

App Information: How to use it: Zooming in and out will turn on and off different layers. A zoomed out map will show the global Koppen climate classification. Zooming in will turn off the climate layer, while enabling the National Weather Service (NWS) Offices, Weather Events and other layers. Clicking on a Weather event or NWS office in the map will bring up a window with more information. - The legends and layers are shown by toggling the menus on via the icons at the bottom of the map.
