The 8-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the fourth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. An 8-digit hydrologic unit, or sub-basin, is a common management unit for water resource planning and analysis. There are 2,362 8-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 1,783 square miles (4,619 sq. km.).
Watershed Boundary Dataset, 12-Digit Hydrologic Units
The 12-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the sixth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. A 12-digit hydrologic unit, or subwatershed, supports water resource management and planning activities at a localized and site-specific level. There are 101,779 12-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 41 square miles (107 sq. km.).
Watershed Boundary Dataset, 10-Digit Hydrologic Units
The 10-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the fifth level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A hydrologic unit can accept surface water from upstream drainage areas and may define a drainage area with single or multiple outlet points. A 10-digit hydrologic unit, or watershed, divides sub-basins into smaller management areas. There are 18,679 10-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 226 square miles (585 sq. km.).
Watershed Boundary Dataset, 6-Digit Hydrologic Units
The 6-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the third level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A 6-digit hydrologic unit may subdivide a 4-digit hydrologic unit or may be equivalent. There are 401 6-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 10,486 square miles (27,159 sq. km.).
Watershed Boundary Dataset, 4-Digit Hydrologic Units
The 4-Digit Hydrologic Units, a component of the Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD), depict the second level hydrologic subdivision of the United States. A 4-digit hydrologic unit includes the area drained by a river system, a reach of a river and its tributaries in that reach, a closed basin(s), or a group of streams forming a coastal drainage area. There are 240 4-digit hydrologic units with an average size of 17,521 square miles (45,378 sq. km.).
Timley and Effective Stroke Care by Hospital, 2018-19
This layer displays the percentage of patients who came to the emergency department with stroke symptoms who received brain scan results within 45 minutes of arrival. Data are reported at the hospital level for the July 2018 – June 2019 period. Data are obtained from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare dataset.
Drought Severity, 2019
This layer displays the percentage of weeks in Any Drought based on analysis of US Drought Monitor weekly drought data files for the year 2019.
Timley and Effective Heart Attack Care by Hospital, 2018-19
This layer displays the average number of minutes before outpatients with chest pain or possible heart attack who needed specialized care were transferred to another hospital. Data are reported at the hospital level for the July 2018 – June 2019 period. Data are obtained from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare dataset.
Preventable Hospitalizations by County, 2017
This layer displays the total number and rate of preventable hospitalization events among Medicare beneficiaries. Preventable hospitalizations include hospital admissions for one or more of the following conditions: diabetes with short-term complications, diabetes with long-term complications, uncontrolled diabetes without complications, diabetes with lower-extremity amputation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, hypertension, heart failure, bacterial pneumonia, or urinary tract infection. Rates are presented per 100,000 beneficiaries.
Breast Cancer Screening by County, 2017
This layer displays the percentage of female Medicare beneficiaries age 35 and older that received an annual breast exam or mammogram in the latest report year (2017).
