Quantification of Physical Characteristics Used to create a correlation matrix between physical features and E. coli counts to determine how physical features influence E. coli levels. Provide maps that identify location of potential E. coli sources. Maps can be used to assist in determining future sample sites. Qualitative Value of Physical Characteristics
