National_Hydrography_Dataset_Plus_Version_2.1_WMTS (MapServer)

View In:   WMTS   Map Viewer

Current Version
Service Description: Lakes, ponds, streams, rivers, and other surface waters of the United States from the National Hydrography Database Plus version 2.1.

Abstract:
The National Hydrography Dataset Plus (NHDplus) maps the lakes, ponds, streams, rivers and other surface waters of the United States. Created by the US EPA Office of Water and the US Geological Survey, the NHDPlus provides mean annual and monthly flow estimates for rivers and streams. Additional attributes provide connections between features facilitating complicated analyses.

For more information on the NHDPlus dataset see the NHDPlus v2 User Guide.

Dataset Summary
Phenomenon Mapped: Surface waters and related features of the United States and associated territories not including Alaska.
Coordinate System: Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere 
Extent: The United States not including Alaska, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Marshall Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and American Samoa 
Visible Scale: Visible at all scales but layer draws best at scales larger than 1:1,000,000
Resolution/Tolerance: 1 meter/2 meters 
Number of Features: 3,035,617 flowlines, 473,936 waterbodies, 16,658 sinks
Feature Request Limit: 5,000
Source: EPA and USGS
Publication Date: March 13, 2019

Prior to publication, the NHDPlus network and non-network flowline feature classes were combined into a single flowline layer. Similarly, the NHDPlus Area and Waterbody feature classes were merged under a single schema.

Attribute fields were added to the flowline and waterbody layers to simplify symbology and enhance the layer's pop-ups. Fields added include Pop-up Title, Pop-up Subtitle, On or Off Network (flowlines only), Esri Symbology (waterbodies only), and Feature Code Description. All other attributes are from the original NHDPlus dataset. No data values -9999 and -9998 were converted to Null values for many of the flowline fields.

What can you do with this Feature Layer?

Feature layers work throughout the ArcGIS system. Generally your work flow with feature layers will begin in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Pro. Below are just a few of the things you can do with a feature service in Online and Pro.

ArcGIS Online
  • Apply filters. For example you can set a filter to show larger streams and rivers using the mean annual flow attribute or the stream order attribute.
ArcGIS Pro
This layer is part of the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World that provides an easy way to explore the landscape layers and many other beautiful and authoritative maps on hundreds of topics.
