Global River Widths from Landsat (GRWL)

This is a novel dataset, called 'Global River Widths from Landsat', which characterizes the global coverage of rivers and streams. This Database is the first global compilation of river planform geometry. It contains planform measurements of >2.1 million km (>58 million measurements) of rivers ≥30 m wide at mean annual discharge. It also contains >7.6 million flagged measurements of lakes, reservoirs, and canals connected to the fluvial network. The dataset can be used for fluviogeomorphological changes associated to climate change.
