The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), part of the Interior Department, is proposing a new information collection called the Hydrography Addressing Tool. This tool, developed by the National Geospatial Program, will allow users to link their geographic data to the National Hydrography Dataset, enhancing data utility and precision. They are seeking public comments on the necessity, accuracy, and impact of this collection by April 5, 2021. Participation is voluntary, and respondents are primarily scientists and editors from various government and educational institutions.
Simple Explanation
The people who look after maps and water places (like rivers and lakes) in the U.S. want to make a new tool to help make maps better. They want to know what other people think about this idea before April, and they're asking people who study maps and science to tell them if they think it's a good idea or if there are any problems.
