The NHD contains geospatial information about mapped surface-water features, such as streams, lakes, and reservoirs, etc., creating a hydrologic network that can be used to determine what is upstream or downstream from a point of interest on the NHD network. An automated snapping process made the initial determination of the NHD location of each streamgage. These initial NHD locations were comprehensively reviewed by local USGS personnel to ensure that streamgages were snapped to the correct NHD reaches. About 75 percent of the streamgages snapped to the appropriate NHD reach location initially and 25 percent required adjustment and relocation. This process resulted in approximately 23,000 gages being successfully snapped to the NHD. This dataset contains the latitude and longitude coordinates of the point on the NHD to which the streamgage is snapped and the location of the gage house for each streamgage. A process known as indexing may be used to create reference points (event tables) to the NHD reaches, expressed as a reach code and measure (distance along the reach). Indexing is dependent on the version of NHD to which the indexing is referenced. These data are well suited for use in indexing because nearly all the streamgage NHD locations have been reviewed and adjusted if necessary, to ensure they will index to the appropriate NHD reach. Flow characteristics were computed from the daily streamflow data recorded at each streamgage for the period of record. The flow characteristics associated with each streamgage include: First date (year, month, day) of streamflow data Last date (year, month, day) of streamflow data Number of days of streamflow data Number of days of non-zero streamflow data Minimum and maximum daily flow for the period of record (cubic feet per second) Percentiles (1, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50, 75, 80, 90, 95, 99) of daily flow for the period of record (cubic feet per second) Average and standard deviation of daily flow for the period of record (cubic feet per second) Mean annual base-flow index (BFI) computed for the period of record (fraction, ranging from 0 to 1) Year-to-year standard deviation of the annual base-flow index computed for the period of record (fraction) Number of years of data used to compute the base-flow index (years) The streamflow data used to compute flow characteristics were copied from the NWIS-Web historical daily discharge archive (http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nwis/sw) on June 15, 2005.""" ; dct:identifier "USGS:d4d13c9d-dc52-4fc9-b8f6-cc42ce9b1a10" ; dct:issued "2025-11-22T00:54:34.657109"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "20201117"^^xsd:gYear ; dct:publisher ; dct:spatial [ a dct:Location ; locn:geometry "POLYGON ((-159.7503 17.9565, -159.7503 48.9999, -65.3025 48.9999, -65.3025 17.9565, -159.7503 17.9565))"^^gsp:wktLiteral ] ; dct:title "USGS Streamgages Linked to the Medium Resolution NHD" ; dcat:contactPoint [ a vcard:Organization ; vcard:fn "US Geological Survey" ; vcard:hasEmail ] ; dcat:distribution , ; dcat:keyword "alabama", "amerigeo", "amerigeoss", "arizona", "arkansas", "base-flow-index", "california", "ckan", "colorado", "connecticut", "deleware", "district-of-columbia", "florida", "gages", "gaging-stations", "geo", "georgia", "geoss", "hawaii", "hydrography", "idaho", "illinois", "indiana", "inlandwaters", "iowa", "kansas", "kentucky", "louisiana", "maine", "maryland", "massachusetts", "michigan", "minnesota", "mississippi", "missouri", "montana", "national", "national-hydrography-dataset", "nebraska", "nevada", "new-hampshire", "new-jersey", "new-mexico", "new-york", "nhd", "north-america", "north-carolina", "north-dakota", "ohio", "oklahoma", "oregon", "pennsylvania", "puerto-rico", "rhode-island", "south-carolina", "south-dakota", "streamflow-data", "streamflow-statistics", "streamgages", "tennessee", "texas", "united-states", "united-states-of-america", "usa", "usgs-d4d13c9d-dc52-4fc9-b8f6-cc42ce9b1a10", "usgs-streamgage-network-locations-for-nhd-version-june-2002-medium-resolution", "utah", "vermont", "virginia", "washington", "west-virginia", "wisconsin", "wyoming" ; dcat:theme <%7Bgeospatial%7D> . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description "Landing page for access to the data" ; dct:format "XML" ; dct:issued "2022-07-28T20:18:06.596089"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2025-11-22T00:54:34.622157"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "Digital Data" ; dcat:accessURL ; dcat:mediaType "application/http" . a dcat:Distribution ; dct:description "The metadata original format" ; dct:format "XML" ; dct:issued "2022-07-28T20:18:06.596082"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:modified "2025-11-22T00:54:34.621738"^^xsd:dateTime ; dct:title "Original Metadata" ; dcat:accessURL ; dcat:mediaType "text/xml" . a foaf:Agent ; foaf:name "US Migrating" .
