The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Puerto Rico Environmental Quality Board, has compiled a series of geospatial datasets for Puerto Rico to be implemented into the USGS StreamStats application (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/). These geospatial datasets, along with basin characteristics datasets for Puerto Rico published as a separate USGS data release (https://doi.org/10.5066/P9HK9SSQ), were used to delineate watersheds and develop the peak-flow and low-flow regression equations used by StreamStats. The geospatial dataset described herein are watershed catchment rasters at a 10-m resolution. The catchment raster assigns a number to each pixel that is unique for each catchment and corresponds to the value of the stream segment that drains that area. Data are partitioned into four TIFF files, one for each of the four 8-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) areas for Puerto Rico: 21010002, 21010003, 21010004, and 21010005.
