Automated data processing techniques in the Water Survey of Canada / W.J. Ozga.: En36-503/84E-PDF

"Automated data processing techniques were introduced in the Water Survey of Canada in 1966 along two fronts: (a) computation of streamflow data using a digitizer, and (b) storage of hydrometric data on magnetic tape. General procedures for the collection, computation and publication of basic hydrometric data are explained. However, the main purpose of this report is to summarize the events leading to automation and the factors and problems involved in the selection and implementation of the system as it now exists"--Abstract, p. v.
