Understanding HOME®
• Eco-hydraulic model that utilizes fish preference information relative to depth, velocity, substrate, and or cover
• Works in any aquatic or associated habitat• Combines these elements on a cell by cell basis
within GIS • Output is a map depicting where habitat is, and
the quality of the habitat relative to the species and life stage you are investigating.

Understanding HOME®
• Calculates Weighted Usable Area (WUA), a widely accepted habitat index
• WUA can be further classified into Good, Fair, or Poor quality

Lessons Learned:
1. Quality Survey = Quality Results2. Engage HOME early for best results3. Know your species, set preference criteria with knowledgeable
folks4. Flow data matter – ungaged streams need attention5. Pick critical conditions, species and life stages to model for
efficiency
