Original Vector Datasets for Hawaii StreamStats

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2020-11-17T00:00:00Z
These datasets each consist of a folder containing a personal geodatabase of the NHD, and shapefiles used in the HydroDEM process. These files are provided as a means to document exactly which lines were used to develop the HydroDEMs. Each folder contains a line shapefile named for the 8-digit HUC code, containing the NHD flowlines that comprise the coastline for that island. The “hydrolines.shp” shapefile contains the lines that were burned into the DEM. These lines were selected from the NHD flowlines, with some minor editing in places. The “wbpolys.shp” shapefile contains the water-body polygons that were selected from the NHD and used in the bathymetric gradient process. The folders for HUCs 20010000 (Hawaii) and 20020000 (Maui) also contain a “walls.shp” shapefile, which contains the lines that were superimposed on the surface as “walls.”
