Stream link rasters for Puerto Rico StreamStats
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Puerto Rico Environmental Quality Board, has compiled a series of geospatial datasets for Puerto Rico to be implemented into the USGS StreamStats application (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/). These geospatial datasets, along with basin characteristics datasets for Puerto Rico published as a separate USGS data release (https://doi.org/10.5066/P9HK9SSQ), were used to delineate watersheds and develop the peak-flow and low-flow regression equations used by StreamStats. The geospatial dataset described herein are the stream link rasters at a 10-m resolution. A number is assigned to a reach of stream located between junctions (such as tributary junctions). Stream link raster contains unique values for each stream segment defined by str. Data are partitioned into four TIFF files, one for each of the four 8-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) areas for Puerto Rico: 21010002, 21010003, 21010004, and 21010005.
