Our recent paper covers developing the hydrological connectivity of infrastructure — dams, power plants, dykes, water transfer locations, and more — across river networks for large river basins. We use this tool for mapping USGS streamgages and reservoirs (from the National Inventory of Dams) along the rivers and flowlines in the upper and lower Colorado River Basin. The river flowline data comes from the National Hydrography Dataset (NHDPlusV2). The RICON toolkit is fully scalable, open-source, and useful for any watershed.
