DEM Assignment

Complete the WMS DEM Basics tutorial and the WMS tutorial for DEM Delineation. You can get the associated files from the WMS Learning Center.

Use the same area that you have previously attempted to delineate a watershed from feature objects download DEM data. Experiment with the many Display Option settings, particularly Contour Options and save a few example pictures for your paragraph. Create a new Drainage Coverage and use the DEM to delineate a watershed and compare to your roughly delineated watershed (don't be embarrassed the expectation using feature objects was very rough). Save an image to your report that shows the DEM-Delineated watershed. 

Write a half page about what you have learned and include the pictures you have created.
