Summary

This dataset was created to support the Washington D.C. StreamStats project funded by the Washington D.C. Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE). The dataset contains digital elevation model (DEM), flow direction and catchment layers that were conditioned using Washingtons D.C.’s stormwater network layer. The data are hosted online as a component of the USGS StreamStats web application (https://streamstats.usgs.gov), where users can interact with a map of Washington D.C.’s stormwater pipe system and National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) “best resolution” blue lines to delineate drainage basins that account for pipe flow. This project utilized 1-meter (high resolution) terrain products, which improves upon existing 10 meter resolution [...]

Purpose

This dataset was created to support watershed delineation for the “Washington D.C. Stormwater” StreamStats fixture. The derivative elevation products produced in this data release were created to support basin delineations in StreamStats that are “informed” by stormwater pipe flow, to create drainage basins that approximate effective basin area in stormwater sewer serviced areas. The data are used to define drainage basins based on a user defined “pour point” on the StreamStats web application.
