To generate larger queries, use the non-map version by clicking on the icon.
Click anywhere on the map to show a watershed catchment and the associated COMID. Holding Control (ctrl key) while clicking enables selecting multiple catchments. Use the drawing buttons on the left of the map to select larger areas.
