Summary
This dataset includes U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) flood-frequency analysis software PeakFQ input and output files for 298 streamgages in Minnesota, Iowa, and South Dakota. Input files for each streamgage include text files with peak streamflow data through 2019 obtained from the USGS National Water Information System (NWIS) and PeakFQ specification information in a .psf file. Output files are in a .prt file with flood-frequency results.

Output files are in a .prt file with flood-frequency results.
Input data were used to compute flood-frequency estimates for streamgages in Minnesota and border areas and were used to develop regional regression equations for estimating flood-frequency statistics at ungaged locations in Minnesota.
