ArcView WIMAS - An ArcView GIS-Based Application for Kansas Water Right Analysis Paper Text

Brownie Wilson

The Water Information Management and Analysis System (WIMAS) is an ArcView GIS-based application that allows users to query Kansas water right data maintained by the Kansas Department of Agriculture, Division of Water Resources (KDA-DWR). Using a shapefile representing points of water diversion that is developed from SQL queries to the KDA-DWR's Oracle-based Water Rights Information System, WIMAS users can summarize total authorized quantity and annual reported water usage for Kansas counties, subbasins, user-defined study areas, or individual water rights. WIMAS displays water right data in map, tabular, and graph forms with printing and export options.
