The StreamCat Dataset: Accumulated Attributes for NHDPlusV2 (Version 2.1) Catchments for the Conterminous United States: National Elevation Dataset

Metadata Updated: February 4, 2025

This dataset represents the elevation values within individual local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds based on the National Elevation Dataset (see Data Sources for links to NHDPlusV2 data and NED data). NHDPlusV2 records NED snapshot dates as follows: August 2010 - VPU04 February 2011 - VPUs 05, 06 June 2011 - VPU 17 August 2011 - VPUs 07, 10L, 10U, 11, 18 December 2011 - VPUs 01, 02, 03N, 03S, 03W, 08, 09, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16. The elevation characteristics were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.
