Description: The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a feature-based database that interconnects and uniquely identifies the stream segments or reaches that make up the nation's surface water drainage system. NHD data was originally developed at 1:100,000-scale and exists at that scale for the whole country. This high-resolution NHD, generally developed at 1:24,000/1:12,000 scale, adds detail to the original 1:100,000-scale NHD. (Data for Alaska, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands was developed at high-resolution, not 1:100,000 scale.) Local resolution NHD is being developed where partners and data exist. The NHD contains reach codes for networked features, flow direction, names, and centerline representations for areal water bodies. Reaches are also defined on waterbodies and the approximate shorelines of the Great Lakes, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and the Gulf of Mexico. The NHD also incorporates the National Spatial Data Infrastructure framework criteria established by the Federal Geographic Data Committee.NHDWaterbodies contain regions representing areal NHD hydrographic waterbody features. Some Waterbody features such as LakePond, Reservoir, and Estuary must have a reachcode. SwampMarsh may have a reachcode. Ice Mass and Playa do not have reachcodes.Field Descriptions:FDate - Date of last feature modification.Resolution - Source resolution. Currently NHD is available as separate resolutions. Plans are to develop a single-resolution database holding the highest resolution data with tools to allow for generalization.GNIS_ID – Unique identifier assigned by GNIS.GNIS_NAME – Proper name, specific term, or expression by which a particular geographic entity is known.AreaSqKm – Area of areal feature based on Albers Equal Area.REACH_CODE – Unique identifier composed of two parts: the first eight digits is the subbasin code as defined by FIPS 103; the next six digits are randomly assigned, sequential numbers that are unique within a subbasin.F_TYPE – Three-digit unique identifier of a feature type.F_TYPE Field Values are as follows:361 = Playa378 = Ice Mass390 = Lake/Pond436 = Reservoir466 = Swamp/Marsh493 = EstuaryF_CODE – Five-digit integer value composed of the feature type and combinations of characteristics and values.Source: https://nhd.usgs.gov/; https://nhd.usgs.gov/userguide.html
