Summary

This data release presents drainage-basin characteristics for 12,639 road and stream intersections in Montana. The drainage-basin characteristics presented include those computed by the Montana StreamStats application (McCarthy and others, 2016). Statistical analysis of the road and stream intersections was included in the report "Peak-Flow Variability, Peak-Flow Informational Needs, and Consideration of Regional Regression Analyses in Managing the Crest-Stage Gage Network in Montana" (Sando, 2021).

Purpose

Statistical analysis of the road and stream intersections provided data on peak-flow informational needs in the Montana streamgage network. This information can be used to optimize the streamgage network to better represent the full range of conditions within each hydrologic region.
