These datasets are raster representations of various environmental, geological, and land use attributes within the New Jersey StreamStats 2022 study area; they are applied in the New Jersey 2022 application to describe delineated watersheds. This update features improvements in base elevation resolution from 10 meters to 10 feet and stream centerline hydrography from 1:24,000 to 1:2,400, as well as resampling of previously existing datasets to match the 10-foot resolution. The sixteen 8-digit Watershed Boundary Dataset  Hydrologic Unit Codes (HUCs) represented by these datasets are  02020007, 02030103, 02030104, 02030105, 02040101, 02040102, 02040103, 02040104, 02040105, 02040106, 02040201, 02040202, 02040203, 02040206, 02040301, and 02040302 (U.S. Geological Survey, 2016). The StreamStats application provides access to spatial analytical tools that are useful for water-resources planning and management, as well as engineering and design purposes. The map-based user interface can be used to delineate drainage areas, determine basin characteristics and estimate flow statistics, including instantaneous flood discharge, monthly flow-duration, and monthly low-flow frequency statistics for ungaged streams. \nReferences cited:  \nU.S. Geological Survey, 2016, National Hydrography: U.S. Geological Survey, accessed February 7, 2022, at https://www.usgs.gov/national-hydrography. \nU.S. Geological Survey, 2022, StreamStats v4.6.2: U.S. Geological Survey, accessed February 7, 2022, at https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9QQ0JDF", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5fe354bbd34ea5387deb47a9.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5fe354bbd34ea5387deb47a9", "keyword": ["USGS:5fe354bbd34ea5387deb47a9", "datasets", "digital elevation models", "earth sciences", "elevation", "environment", "field inventory and monitoring", "forest ecosystems", "geomorphology", "geoscientificInformation", "geospatial datasets", "human impacts", "hydrology", "imageryBaseMapsEarthCover", "land surface characteristics", "land use and land cover", "land use change", "permeability", "physiological processes", "population (human)", "precipitation (atmospheric)", "soil sciences", "vegetation", "water resource management", "water resources"], "modified": "2022-08-10T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-76.8713, 38.788, -73.5535, 42.5689", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Basin characteristics rasters for New Jersey StreamStats 2022"}
