A global dataset of reservoir in-situ water levels for hydrological and remote sensing applications

The GROWL dataset provides comprehensive reservoir information, including static attributes and long-term water level or storage time series. The dataset consists of four main components:GROWL_Metadata.csv: Contains static attributes for each of the 4,134 reservoirs in the dataset, including identifiers, names, geographic coordinates, and links to the original data sources.GROWL_Timeseries: A directory containing the complete long-term time series of water level or storage for each reservoir, organized as individual files corresponding to each reservoir.GROWL_Location: A point shapefile showing the geographic locations of stations and reservoirs, referenced to the WGS84 coordinate system (EPSG:4326).README.md: A documentation file summarizing the GROWL dataset structure, contents, and usage, and providing guidance for interpreting metadata and citing the dataset.For an interactive visualization of the dataset (Google Earth Engine App), please visit:https://myzhang.projects.earthengine.app/view/growl

GROWL数据集提供了全面的水库信息，涵盖静态属性与长期水位或库容时间序列。该数据集包含四个核心组成部分：
1. GROWL_Metadata.csv：包含数据集中4134座水库的各项静态属性，涵盖标识符、名称、地理坐标以及原始数据源链接。
2. GROWL_Timeseries：一个存储所有水库完整长期水位或库容时间序列的目录，按单座水库单独组织为独立文件。
3. GROWL_Location：一个点形状文件（shapefile），展示了监测站点与水库的地理分布，采用WGS84坐标系（EPSG:4326）。
4. README.md：一份说明文档，汇总了GROWL数据集的结构、内容与使用方法，并提供元数据解读与数据集引用指南。
