Datasets for analyzing stream gage discharge and Landsat imagery integration in the greater Central Valley, California from 1984 to 2015

This data release comprises the data files and code necessary to perform all analyses presented in the associated publication. The *.csv data files are aggregations of water extent on the basis of the European Commission's Joint Research Centre (JRC) Monthly Water History database (v1.0) and the Dynamic Surface Water Extent (DSWE) algorithm. The shapefile dataset contains the study area 8-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC) regions used as the basis for analysis. Html files provide an overview of the study workflow and integrated R notebooks (in .Rmd format) for recreating all project results and plots. The R notebook ingest the necessary data files from their online locations. These data support the following publication: Walker JJ, Soulard CE, Petrakis RE. In press. Integrating stream gage data and Landsat imagery to complete time-series of surface water extents in Central Valley, California.
