The Rio Grande Civil Works and Restoration Projects Web Application (http://txpub.usgs.gov/USACE/default.asp), developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Albuquerque District, is designed to provide publicly available information through the Internet about civil works and restoration projects in the Rio Grande Basin. Since 1942, USACE Albuquerque District responsibilities have included such projects as flood protection, supplying water for power and public recreation, participating in fire remediation, and protecting and restoring wetlands. In the process of conducting this vast array of engineering work, a need arose for easily tracking the locations of and providing information about projects to stakeholders and the public. The Website and Web mapping application were developed using ArcGIS Server, ASP.NET and Flex to enable users to visualize locations and search for information about USACE projects throughout the Rio Grande Basin in southern Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas.
