Local and Global Geodatabases Used in South Carolina StreamStats 2024

In cooperation with the South Carolina Department of Transportation, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) updated the foundational geospatial layers for the South Carolina StreamStats web application (https://www.usgs.gov/streamstats), which provides analytical tools useful for water-resources planning and management (Kolb and others, 2018). This dataset comprises the 45 local geodatabases of the 8-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC-8) watersheds in the South Carolina StreamStats (henceforth referred to as SC StreamStats) study area along with the global geodatabase that ties the local HUC-8s together. This dataset supersedes the previous SC StreamStats version 1 data published in Kolb and others (2018), reflecting updated lidar-derived elevation data for much of the state, along with new streamlines for Charleston and Georgetown counties.
