Background/History of the Laboratory:
The U.S. Geological Survey currently operates about 688
data collection sites in Texas for acquiring information
on surface-water, ground-water, water-quality, and precipitation. These sites are equipped with satellite
telemetry, which provides real-time data via GOES satellites and downlinks, which enables the posting
of data
to the Web for public dissemination.
