Canal Density
URL: https://gaftp.epa.gov/EPADataCommons/ORD/NHDPlusLandscapeAttributes/StreamCat/HydroRegions/
This dataset represents the canal density within individual, local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds. Attributes of the landscape layer were calculated for every local NHDPlusV2 catchment and accumulated to provide watershed-level metrics. This data set is derived from NHDPlusV2 line features classified as canal, ditch, or pipeline in the conterminous United States. Canal density describes how many kilometers of canal exist in a square kilometer. A raster was produced using the ArcGIS Line Density Tool to form the landscape layer for analysis. The (kilometer of canal/square kilometer) was summarized by local catchment and by watershed to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.
