Hi Y'all, From what I can tell: - Every water body does get a reach ID. I've seen nulls in this file but haven't yet figured out what they are...in local sample areas, all water bodies have reach IDs. - If there is linkeage between areas and flow lines (which I _thought_ there was when rea

Hi Ian, Where on the OSM servers is the current NHD data, and in what format? I didn't see it referenced in the wiki work-flow. - Not all of the data types contain enough information to split like this (last I checked the linear features were the only ones with reach code. Polygonal features

[Talk-us] NHD data extract

2011-04-26 Thread Ben Supnik
Hi Y'all, The USGS was kind enough to send me the latest shapefile extract for the NHD yesterday. So my question is: is there some way I can process and repost this data that would make it more suitable for importers? I read the wiki pages on NHD imports a few weeks ago, but found the USGS
