Natural levee abundance on rivers in the continental USA

This dataset contains a geospatial file that marks the locations of 561 river reaches across the continental USA. These river reaches have been examined and the proportion of the river with natural levees has been quantified at one of three ordinal levels: "abundant," "sparse," "absent." Each reach also has derived data from SWORD version 9 (Altenau et al. 2021), as well as other derived products from remote sensing datasets and the nearest USGS gage. Altenau, E. H., Pavelsky, T.
