This dataset was produced in by the Delaware Geological survey in cooperation with the US Geological Survey and Delaware Department of Transportation for the purpose of delineating gage basins and performing hydrologic analysis in the Delaware 2020 StreamStats application. These datasets are raster representations of the fundamental dataset layers necessary for the functionality of StreamStats application within the Delaware StreamStats 2020 study area. The StreamStats application provides access to spatial analytical tools that are useful for water-resources planning and management, and for engineering and design purposes. The map-based user interface can be used to delineate drainage areas, get basin characteristics and estimates of flow statistics, and more. The datasets include a study area defined by all HUC12 watersheds flowing into or out of the state of Delaware, which includes portions of HUC08 watersheds 02040202, 02040205, 02040207, 02040303, 02060002, 02060005, 02080109, 02080110, and 02080111.

Peak-flow and low-flow magnitude estimates at defined frequencies and durations for nontidal streams in Delaware
Reliable estimates of the magnitude of peak flows in streams are required for the economical and safe design of transportation and water conveyance structures. In addition, reliable estimates of the magnitude of low flows at defined frequencies and durations are needed for meeting regulatory requirements, quantifying base flows in streams and rivers, and evaluating time of travel and dilution of tAuthorsJohn C.
