Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><P><SPAN>This dataset was improved to local resolution (1:2,400) as part of the Indiana Local Resolution NHD Project completed in 2016. The following process was completed by subbasin: high-resolution NHD geodatabase is checked out from USGS; six-acre catchment areas and streams are generated using best-available digital elevation model; areas, flowlines, and waterbodies are digitized to the 6-acre limit using the best available aerial photography, adding ftype to each feature; attributes from high-resolution NHD are conflated to the new linework; subbasin geodatabase is checked back in to USGS. Since 2016, minor edits have been made to the data. A statewide extract of the NHD for Indiana was created on April 16, 2020, then downloaded from the USGS NHD Stewardship site; from that statewide extract the NHDWaterbody features were reprojected to UTM NAD 83 Zone 16N and loaded into this dataset. Criteria used in digitizing NHDWaterbody features as part of the Local Resolution Upgrade Project: Lake/Ponds: All Lake/Ponds shall be collected using the orthophotography as a guide, regardless of whether or not they lie on a single line streamline. Only waterbodies that have a size of ¼ acre (10,890 square feet) or larger should be collected. These features may need to be adjusted to better align with the orthophotography. The exception to this rule is waterbody features that exist in the 1:24K NHD and are still visible in the orthophotos. These 24K NHDWaterbody features shall be collected as well and adjusted to match the imagery. If a 1:24K NHD water body no longer exists, then it shall not be included in the dataset. Swamp/Marshes: Only Swamp/Marshes that exist in the 1:24K NHD will be collected; no new swamps will be added. There are many swamp/marshes in the 1:24 K NHD, but many can no longer be distinguished according to the Standards for NHD. If it cannot be seen in the orthophotography, it should not be added. - Swamp/Marshes shall be collected using the orthophotography as a guide. In forested areas it is very challenging to determine what constitutes a swamp/marsh without additional reference data. Therefore, National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) data provided by the State shall be used as a guide for boundary determination. Additionally, many old swamp/marshes have been converted to agricultural land. They can appear as either a mud puddle in the imagery or a waterbody. These puddles should not be considered a swamp/marsh but rather a lakepond if it meets the ¼ acre criteria. Reservoirs: 1:24K NHD reservoirs should be collected using the orthophotography as a guide. These features should be given an FType of Reservoir.

NHD data was originally developed at 1:100,000-scale and exists at that scale for the whole country. This high-resolution NHD, generally developed at 1:24,000/1:12,000 scale, adds detail to the original 1:100,000-scale NHD. (Data for Alaska, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands was developed at high-resolution, not 1:100,000 scale.) Local resolution NHD is being developed where partners and data exist. The NHD contains reach codes for networked features, flow direction, names, and centerline representations for areal water bodies. Reaches are also defined on waterbodies and the approximate shorelines of the Great Lakes, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and the Gulf of Mexico. The NHD also incorporates the National Spatial Data Infrastructure framework criteria established by the Federal Geographic Data Committee.</SPAN></P></DIV>
