Introduction to the NHD Training

[ no slides ] [ no video ]

The National Hydrography Dataset is a combination of the USGS 1:100,000 scale hydrography data and the EPA Reach data. The dataset is structured to allow flow modeling of the hydrography data and to easily attach agency specific attribute data to the reaches. The data is in the new USGS enhanced model, that imports into ArcView.

This class was a hands on introduction to the National Hydrography Dataset. The topics covered were an indepth overview of the NHD model, how to download the data from the website, the steps in loading the data into ArcView using the NHD toolkit, and example exercises in linking the NHD with external datasets.

Session was held at the USGS Office, 8027 Exchange Drive, in Austin
