Description: <div>The National Hydrography Dataset Plus (NHDplus) maps the<span> lakes, ponds, streams, rivers and other surface waters of the United States. Created by the</span> <a href='https://www.epa.gov/waterdata/basic-information' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>US EPA Office of Water</a> and the <a href='https://www.usgs.gov/core-science-systems/ngp/national-hydrography' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>US Geological Survey</a>, the NHDPlus provides mean annual and monthly flow estimates for rivers and streams. Additional attributes provide connections between features facilitating complicated analyses. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>For more information on the NHDPlus dataset see the <a href='https://www.horizon-systems.com/NHDPlus/NHDPlusV2_documentation.php#NHDPlusV2%20User%20Guide' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>NHDPlus v2 User Guide</a>.</div><div><font size='4'><br /></font></div><div style='text-align:left;'><font size='4'>Dataset Summary</font></div><span style='font-size:20px; font-family:sans-serif;'></span><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Phenomenon Mapped:</b> Surface waters and related features of the United States and associated territories not including Alaska.</span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Coordinate System: </b>Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere </span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Extent: </b>The United States not including Alaska, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Marshall Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and American Samoa </span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Visible Scale: </b>Visible at all scales but layer draws best at scales larger than 1:1,000,000</span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Resolution/Tolerance: </b>1 meter/2 meters </span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Number of Features: </b>3,035,617 flowlines, 473,936 waterbodies, 16,658 sinks</span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Feature Request Limit: </b>5,000</span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Source:</b> </span></font><a href='https://www.epa.gov/waterdata/basic-information' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>EPA</a> and <a href='https://www.usgs.gov/core-science-systems/ngp/national-hydrography' rel='nofollow ugc' target='_blank'>USGS</a></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><b>Publication Date: </b>March 13, 2019</span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'><br /></span></font></div><div><font><span style='font-size:16px; font-variant-ligatures:none;'>Prior to publication, the NHDPlus network and non-network flowline feature classes were combined into a single flowline layer.
