Data Viewer - Everglades Depth Estimation Network (EDEN)

The EDEN Data Viewer is a program for viewing the daily EDEN surfaces of water level and ground elevation from the ground surface digital elevation model and creates daily surfaces of water depth and days since last dry. The user can view all or a selected area of the EDEN domain and the surfaces can be animated over time. Data values for each surface are reported for user-selected UTM-coordinate locations.
