River Kilometer Index is a way to index locations along a river by measuring the distance in kilometers from the downstream end of the river, e.g. RSAC054 is 54 km from the Golden gate bridge, the most downstream discernible reach of the Sacramento River

In light of current GIS information this practice should be superseded by exact latitude,longitude coordinates, however it is resilient in its use due to legacy reasons. It is also useful in terms of physical processes which are related to the distance along the river rather than coordinates in a general space
