(Taken from 11-digit Hydrologic Unit for Alabama abstract, http://www.gsa.state.al.us/gsa/gsa.html

This data set is a digital hydrologic unit boundary that is at the Watershed (11-digit) level for the State of Alabama. The data set was developed by delineating the boundary lines on base maps and digitizing the delineated lines. This data set consists of geo-referenced digital map data and attribute data. The map data, which were captured from 7 1/2 minute quadrangles, comprise a seamless data layer for the entire State of Alabama. All land area within the state can be characterized uniquely as being contained in one and only one hydrologic unit boundary at the 11-digit level. The hydrologic unit ID code attached to each delineated polygon is linked to the attribute data.

The Watershed hydrologic unit boundaries provide a uniquely identified and uniform method of subdividing large drainage areas. These smaller sized hydrologic units (up to 250,000 acres) are useful in many programs supported by federal and state agencies and others. These data are appropriate for use in GIS applications.
