Hydrography/Hypsography Integration

Hydrography/Hypsography integration, aka Hydro/hypso, involves combining information about water (hydro) and elevation (hypso) to study how water moves across different landscapes.

It helps scientists understand where water flows, accumulates, and how it shapes the land. This helps scientists figure out how to manage water resources and predict flooding or erosion.
