Summary
The Transboundary Geospatial Fabric (TGF) is a dataset of spatial modeling units consistent with the Geospatial Fabric for National Hydrologic Modeling (abbreviated within this document as GFv1, Viger and Bock, 2014). These features were derived from National Hydrography Dataset Plus High Resolution data (NHDPlus HR, U.S. Geological Survey [USGS], 2018) in the following conterminous United States (CONUS) - Canada transboundary four-digit Hydrologic Units (HUC4): 0101, 0105, 0108, 0901, 0902, 0903, 0904, 1005, 1006, 1701, 1702, and 1711. The data described here include the following vector feature classes: points of interest (POIs), a stream network (nsegment), major waterbodies (waterbodies), and hydrologic response units (nhru). These [...]

The data described here include the following vector feature classes: points of interest (POIs), a stream network (nsegment), major waterbodies (waterbodies), and hydrologic response units (nhru). These feature classes are contained within the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) geodatabase format (TGF.gdb).

Purpose
The purpose of the dataset is to extend the GFv1 domain in support of the National Hydrologic Model (NHM) to include the major CONUS-CA transboundary basins by deriving modeling units (POIs, nsegment, waterbodies, and nhru) that match the scale of detail and information in the GFv1.
