Abstract: Markup Application is the name of the USGS National Geospatial Technical Operations Center project that allows citizen participation in volunteer map data collection activities for hydrography datasets. Markup Application allows citizens to submit proposed changes and corrections, called “markups,” to NHD, WBD, or NHDPlus HR by drawing newly proposed features on the map or by filling out a form that explains a suggested change for a selected feature. All submitted markups, along with the user email contact, are saved in a database to be reviewed by NHD or WBD state stewards, or USGS staff, for validation.
