Wayne SW/MO Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 This one has been around a long time. http://waterdata.usgs.gov/mo/nwis/rt Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Riverwhy Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Not all the gauges are listed but it is a good tool.
moguy1973 Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 Not all the gauges are listed but it is a good tool. Yeah, it's mostly the bigger rivers and creeks but a majority of the well known ones are on there. -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson
moguy1973 Posted June 4, 2013 Author Posted June 4, 2013 This one has been around a long time. http://waterdata.usgs.gov/mo/nwis/rt That one is smaller though and you can't zoom in on it. And even though the information on that site more informational, they actually list out areas that flood at certain river levels on the one I posted. It even shows a detailed map of where the gauge is actually located on the river/stream/creek when you visit each specific gauge page. -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson

You can get all the info that's on your map from the USGS sites, but you have to go to multiple pages to do so. The map you linked is a little easier to glean info from.
Gavin Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 You can get a file that marks there locations on Google Earth....and there are some other neat tools on the USGS site.

Please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions on how we may improve the overall quality and utility of our product. Not promising it will get done, but it's a place to start. I'm glad you guys find our data useful, and I'm proud to help provide this service to the public. ~Kel
