Gross and effective drainage area boundaries of the AAFC Watersheds project - 2013

Gross and effective drainage area boundaries of the AAFC Watersheds project - 2013 The “Gross and Effective Drainage Area Boundaries of the AAFC Watersheds Project - 2013” dataset is a geospatial data layer containing line features representing boundaries associated with the ‘incremental gross drainage areas’ of the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) Watersheds Project. The project is subdivided by hydrometric gauging station. The maximum area that could contribute runoff to each station, less that of its upstream neighbour(s) is called its ‘incremental gross drainage area’. Two types of boundary are provided: ‘gross’ and ‘effective’. ‘Gross’ boundaries separate adjacent incremental gross drainage areas. ‘Effective’ boundaries delimit, within each incremental gross drainage area, the separation between areas that supply runoff, based on average runoff, from those that don’t. 2023-03-30 Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Agri-Geomatics-Agrog@agr.gc.ca Nature and EnvironmentWaterWatershedsWestern provincesHydrologyInland watersDrainage Data Product Specification (English)PDF https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/data_donnees/watersheds2013/supportdocument_documentdesupport/en/ISO_19131_AAFC_Watersheds_Project_2013_Data_Product_Specification.pdf Data Product Specification (French)PDF https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/data_donnees/watersheds2013/supportdocument_documentdesupport/fr/Projet_des_bassins_hydrographiques_d_AAC_2013_Specifications_de_contenu_informationnel_ISO_19131.pdf Pre-packaged FGDB files (Bilingual)FGDB/GDB https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/data_donnees/watersheds2013/data_donnees/fgdb/HYD_AAFC_GROSS_EFF_LINE_FGDB.zip Pre-packaged GEJSON files (Bilingual)GEOJSON https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/data_donnees/Watersheds2013/data_donnees/geojson/HYD_AAFC_GROSS_EFF_LINE.zip Gross and effective drainage area boundariesESRI REST https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/rest/services/mapservices/aafc_watershed_2013/MapServer/2 Gross and effective drainage area boundariesESRI REST https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/rest/services/servicesdecarte/aac_bassin_hydrographique_2013/MapServer/2 Gross and Effective Drainage Area BoundariesWMS https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/services/mapservices/aafc_watershed_2013/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS&layers=12&legend_format=image/png&feature_info_type=text/html Gross and effective drainage area boundariesWMS https://agriculture.canada.ca/atlas/services/servicesdecarte/aac_bassin_hydrographique_2013/MapServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS&layers=12&legend_format=image/png&feature_info_type=text/html
