The USGS generates data and spatial information used to understand and help restore the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed. USGS Chesapeake Bay data includes research, monitoring, and modeling information related to land cover and use, water quality and quality, and biological resources and their habitats.

Some of the USGS data are also integrated with the Chesapeake Information Management System (CIMS) and the Chesapeake Bay Program "Watershed Profiles".
