The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Extent Hydrogeologic Framework for National Water Census (NEHF) project is a multi-year effort (2022 through 2025) that will compile existing assets (approaches, data, software, etc.), develop a strategic plan, and implement an operational framework that is dynamic and multi-scale. Within the USGS, numerical groundwater-flow and solute- and heat-transport models have been created for a variety of purposes that include water-resource assessments, contaminant-transport evaluations, and water-management planning. These models are often supported by hydrogeologic-framework studies that describe the surface and subsurface distribution of geologic materials and their hydrologic properties. This digital data release was developed as part of the NEHF project to compile, in tabular and spatial form, information on the salient characteristics of numerical groundwater-flow and solute- and heat-transport models published or developed by the USGS for regions in the U.S. and its territories and commonwealths from the date of the earliest published model, 1970, through 2022.
