Summary
This metadata record describes a series of data sets of natural, climatic, and anthropogenic landscape features processed as model inputs for the Data-Driven Drought Prediction Project of the Water Resources Mission Area Drought Program. These data are linked to two different spatial units: the National Hydrologic Geospatial Fabric version 1.1 (nhgfv1.1) including their associated individual catchments as well as their upstream watersheds for the Upper and Lower portions of the Colorado River Basin (Bock and others, 2020) and select U.S. Geological Survey streamgage basins for the conterminous United States ( Wieczorek and Staub, 2023). Child items are arranged by data themes (GRIDMET, NLDAS-2, SWE, see table below for more details). [...]

Purpose
This page was created to communicate and share Department of Interior-internal information related to the Data-Driven Drought Prediction Project of the Water Resources Mission Area Drought Program. This project focuses on the initial development of a regional prototype for streamflow drought prediction, applying data-driven methods in conjunction with members of the National Drought Prediction project. Child folders are organized by spatial extent (Upper Colorado and CONUS) and sub-folders by data themes (GRIDMET, MODIS_MOD10A, SWE, etc) and files by spatial unit (gaged watersheds and nhgfv1.1) . See each file's metadata for more details.
