This dataset was produced by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the Wyoming Water Development Office for the purpose of calculating basin characteristics in preparation for the Wyoming StreamStats application. These datasets are raster representations of various environmental, geological, and land use attributes with the Wyoming StreamStats study area and will be served in the Wyoming StreamStats application to describe delineated watersheds. The StreamStats application provides access to spatial analytical tools that are useful for water-resources planning and management, and for engineering and design purposes. The map-based user interface can be used to delineate drainage areas, get basin characteristics and estimates of flow statistics. To aid in parameterization of mechanistic, statistical, and machine learning models of hydrologic systems in the Wyoming StreamStats study area, flow-conditioned parameter grids (FCPGs) have been generated describing upstream basin elevation, slope, level III and IV ecoregion codes, hydrologic regions, land cover classification, waterbodies, first of the month snow water equivalent (Jan-Jun), soil type, average soil permeability, evapotranspiration Spring and Summer, and modeled 30-year normal climatologies of average annual total precipitation, average monthly total precipitation, average annual daily mean temperature, and average monthly daily mean temperature values within the Wyoming StreamStats study area.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Wyoming Water Development Office, developed streamflow statistics for active (through September 30, 2021) and discontinued USGS streamgages in and near Wyoming with 10 or more years of daily mean streamflow record. The computation of streamflow statistics for USGS streamgages is part of a larger study to develop a StreamStats application (www.usgs.gov/streamstats) for the State of Wyoming (https://www.usgs.gov/centers/wyoming-montana-water-science-center/science/wyoming-streamstats). StreamStats is a web-based computer program that can be used to delineate drainage areas, determine basin characteristics, and compute streamflow statistics at locations with and without streamgages (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/; Ries and others, 2024). Streamflow at each streamgage was assessed for degree of human alteration owing to dams and diversions before streamflow statistics were computed. Streamflow records from 631 streamgage periods of record were used to compute basic, seasonal, and flow-duration statistics; records for 390 streamgage periods of record were used to compute n-day statistics and statistics that can be used for regional regression. Methods used to compute the summary statistics contained in this data release are described in an accompanying report (Armstrong and others, 2025).

This data release contains vector and raster geospatial data for delineating drainage basins in the Nevada StreamStats study area. Included are vector streamline, waterbody, and inner wall data used to hydrologically condition the digital elevation model. The hydrologically-conditioned digital elevation model, flow direction, flow accumulation, and stream delineation raster data are also included.

This dataset was produced in by the Delaware Geological survey in cooperation with the US Geological Survey and Delaware Department of Transportation for the purpose of calculating stream gage basin characteristics in preparation for the Delaware 2020 StreamStats application. These datasets are raster representations of various environmental, geological, and land use attributes within the Delaware StreamStats 2020 study area, and will be served in the Delaware StreamStats 2020 application to describe delineated watersheds. The StreamStats application provides access to spatial analytical tools that are useful for water-resources planning and management, and for engineering and design purposes. The map-based user interface can be used to delineate drainage areas, get basin characteristics and estimates of flow statistics, and more.

This data release contains raster geospatial data for characterizing drainage basins in the Nevada StreamStats study area. Included are precipitation, temperature, elevation, slope, and land cover data.

In 2016, non-interpretive streamflow statistics were compiled for streamgages located throughout the Nation and stored in the StreamStatsDB database for use with StreamStats and other applications. Two previously published USGS computer programs that were designed to help calculate streamflow statistics were updated to better support StreamStats as part of this effort. These programs are named “GNWISQ” (Get National Water Information System Streamflow (Q) files) and “QSTATS” (Streamflow (Q) Statistics). Statistics for 20,438 streamgages that had 1 or more complete years of record during water years 1901 through 2015 were calculated from daily mean streamflow data; 19,415 of these streamgages were within the conterminous United States. About 89 percent of the 20,438 streamgages had 3 or more years of record, and 65 percent had 10 or more years of record. Drainage areas of the 20,438 streamgages ranged from 0.01 to 1,144,500 square miles. The magnitude of annual average streamflow yields (streamflow per square mile) for these streamgages varied by almost six orders of magnitude, from 0.000029 to 34 cubic feet per second per square mile. About 64 percent of these streamgages did not have any zero-flow days during their available period of record. The 18,122 streamgages with 3 or more years of record were included in the StreamStatsDB compilation so they would be available via the StreamStats interface for user-selected streamgages.

This dataset provides watershed delineations for 1,703 U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) streamgaging stations (gages) for geospatial statistical study of peak streamflows in and near Texas. These streamgaging stations are in Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico (east of the Great Continental Divide) with some of the watersheds associated with the 1,703 streamgaging stations extending into several surrounding states or into Mexico. Watershed characteristics are indexed by using the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) version 2.2.1 Indexing was accomplished by using the Permanent Identifier (PERMID; a string that uniquely identifies each feature in the NHD) and by using the USGS identification number for the streamgaging station (gage). The following watershed characteristics are included: watershed centroid, area, perimeter, basin shape index, sinuosity, drainage area, contributing drainage area, functional drainage area, summed values per watershed from the National Inventory of Dams (NID), mean watershed slope, main-channel slope, 10-85 slope, streamgaging station point elevation, mean elevation per watershed, mean annual precipitation per streamgaging station, mean annual and monthly precipitation per watershed, mean annual and monthly solar radiation per streamgaging station, mean annual and monthly solar radiation per watershed, hydrologic soil groups per watershed, land cover per watershed, and multi order hydrologic position of streamgaging stations and stream segments. The watershed characteristics in this dataset are used to describe the point at the USGS streamgaging station, the full watershed that defines each site, and the main channel segment of each watershed.
