n/a
Site type
A list of primary and secondary site types that can be associated with data collection sites. A site type is a generalized location in the hydrologic cycle, or a man-made feature thought to affect the hydrologic conditions measured at a site. All sites are associated with a primary site type, and may additionally be associated with a secondary site type that further describes the location. The exception to this rule is the Facility primary site type, which must always be associated with a secondary site type. The site type code incorporates these hierarchial distinctions.
Field, Pasture, Orchard, or Nursery
A water-using agricultural facility characterized by an area for crop cultivation (field), grazing (pasture), fruit or nut production (orchard), or plant propagation (nursery). Irrigation water may or may not be applied.
