Flood Inundation, Flood Depth, and High-Water Marks Associated with the Flood of July 2016 in Northern Wisconsin and the Bad River Reservation
November 9, 2017
This data set contains shapefiles and metadata associated with flood inundation maps for three areas of the Bad River, associated with the flood of July 2016 in northern Wisconsin and the Bad River Reservation. The shapefiles are grouped by subarea and include the Bad River (Bad_layers), Beartrap Creek (Beartrap_layers), and Denomie Creek (Denomie_layers). Shapefiles were created for the flood inundation area, a boundary for the mapped area, and flood depths in the vicinity of Odanah, Wisconsin within the Bad River Reservation. The Bad River subarea also contains a shapefile of the high-water marks. A companion report describing the flood and associated peak streamflows, high-water marks, and flood inundation maps is available in Fitzpatrick and others (2017).
