Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 07, 2026 | Last Modified: 2021-11-30T00:00:00Z
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release consists of two hydrographic datasets with spatial modeling units, two sets of spatial data consistent with the National Hydrologic Model (NHM) Geospatial Fabric for National Hydrologic Modeling (abbreviated within this document as GFv1, Viger and Bock, 2014), and a database of 118 parameters used to run the NHM . These datasets are found as subpages to this landing page as 1) the GIS (geographic information system) features of the United States-Canada Transboundary Geospatial Fabric (TGF, added 08/04/2020), 2) the GIS features of the Geospatial Fabric v1.1 (GFv1.1 or v1_1, added 08/04/2020) which is an update to the GF and includes the TGF, 3) Topographic derivative datasets for the United States-Canada transboundary Geospatial Fabric (added 10/28/2020), 4) Data Layers for the National Hydrologic Model, version 1.1, and 5) National Hydrologic Model's United States-Canada Transboundary Geospatial Fabric Parameter Database (added 11/10/2021). See subpages for more details.
