Spatially consistent physical characteristics of <scp>UK</scp> rivers: 1‐km data

The physical river characteristics datasets described here provide spatially consistent information to support hydrological and inundation modelling at a 1 km × resolution across the United Kingdom, on British National Grid. of gridded (outflow drainage directions, catchment areas, widths bankfull rivers depths rivers) comma-separated table NRFA (National River Flow Archive) gauging station locations. These are derived from range sources: outflow area existing higher datasets, whereas were harder source instead sparse historical measurements. new value for each UK land cell Grid (BNG). locations provides most appropriate 1,499 flow stations grids, together with approximate error in delineation upstream area.
