WELCOME TO THE RESERVOIR SEDIMENTATION (RESSED) DATABASE
The Advisory Committee on Water Information, Subcommittee on Sedimentation’s Reservoir Sedimentation (RESSED) database enables access to sedimentation-survey data for selected United States reservoirs. These data or their visual representation are available via:
- A Relational Database containing all Subcommittee on Sedimentation’s compiled reservoir-survey information to facilitate analyses related to reservoir-sediment deposition.
- Interactive Maps for viewing reservoir-survey locations and ancillary information, and
- List of Reservoirs and Individual Data Sheets used to populate the relational database for all but two of the surveyed reservoirs.
RESSED, developed in March 2009 from its predecessor RESIS-II, is a work-in-progress, dynamic database. The Subcommittee on Sedimentation seeks additional or revised quality-assured sediment-survey information to improve and expand RESSED.
