The information was presented in Clarke 1866 ellipsoids and geographic coordinates. The files were unzipped using WinZip and resulting files .e00 were converted from Arc Info format to Arc View using Import71. The dataset did not include stream data, therefore data will be obtained from Hydro1K for Europe.

Although my command of the German language is limited, I managed to locate data for the Danube River regarding physical and chemical parameters of the water, such as hardness, pH, conductivity, nitrate, TOC, calcium, and atrazine. I have considered modifying my topic, however I will continue to search for data over the next couple of weeks. If I cannot obtain data specific to Dam, I will begin data collection of information for the Black Sea. The data was labeled based on information presented by Digital Chart of the World regarding labeling.
