World Water Bodies provides a detailed basemap layer for the lakes, seas, oceans, large rivers, and dry salt flats of the world.

World Water Bodies represents the open water rivers, lakes, dry salt flats, seas, and oceans of the world.For complete hydrographic coverage, use this dataset in conjunction with the World Linear Water dataset.

The SRTM Water Body Data files are a by-product of the data editing performed by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) to produce the finished SRTM Digital Terrain Elevation Data Level 2 (DTED® 2). In accordance with the DTED® 2 specification, the terrain elevation data have been edited to portray water bodies that meet minimum capture criteria. Ocean, lake and river shorelines were identified and delineated. Lake elevations were set to a constant value. Ocean elevations were set to zero. Rivers were stepped down monotonically to maintain proper flow. After this processing was done, the shorelines from the one arc second (approx. 30-meter) DTED® 2 were saved as vectors in ESRI 3-D Shapefile format. In most cases, two orthorectified image mosaics (one for ascending passes and one for descending passes) at a one arc second resolution were available for identifying water bodies and delineating shorelines in each 1 x1 cell. These were used as the primary source for water body editing. The guiding principle for this editing was that water must be depicted as it was in February 2000 at the time of the shuttle flight. A Landcover water layer and medium-scale maps and charts were used as supplemental data sources, generally as supporting evidence for water identified in the image mosaics. Since the Landcover water layer was derived mostly from Landsat 5 data collected a decade earlier than the Shuttle mission and the map sources had similar currency problems, there were significant seasonal and temporal differences between the depiction of water in the ancillary sources and the actual extent of water bodies in February 2000 in many instances. In rare cases, where the SRTM image mosaics were missing or unusable, Landcover was used to delineate the water in the SRTM cells. The DTED® header records for those cells are documented accordingly.

This data set was clipped from the Nation Hydrography Dataset (NHD) using the Lake County boundary.

The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a feature-based database that interconnects and uniquely identifies the stream segments or reaches that make up the nation's surface water drainage system. NHD data was originally developed at 1:100,000-scale and exists at that scale for the whole country. This high-resolution NHD, generally developed at 1:24,000/1:12,000 scale, adds detail to the original 1:100,000-scale NHD. (Data for Alaska, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands was developed at high-resolution, not 1:100,000 scale.) Local resolution NHD is being developed where partners and data exist. The NHD contains reach codes for networked features, flow direction, names, and centerline representations for areal water bodies. Reaches are also defined on waterbodies and the approximate shorelines of the Great Lakes, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and the Gulf of Mexico. The NHD also incorporates the National Spatial Data Infrastructure framework criteria established by the Federal Geographic Data Committee.

This map layer shows areal and linear water features of the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The original file was produced by joining the individual State hydrography layers from the 1:2,000,000- scale Digital Line Graph (DLG) data produced by the USGS. This map layer was formerly distributed as Hydrography Features of the United States. This is a revised version of the January 2003 map layer.

Global map of open permanent water bodies at 300m spatial resolution derived from the full ENVISAT-ASAR dataset between 2005 and 2010.

In an attempt to improve the characterization of inland water bodies in global LC products, a SAR-based approach has been implemented. Multi-temporal acquisitions of Envisat ASAR Wide Swath Mode with local gap fillers based on Image Mode and Global Monitoring Mode from the years 2005 to 2010, MERIS data and auxiliary datasets have been used to generate a single epoch map of permanent open water bodies at 300 m.

Static map of stable open water bodies at 300m spatial resolution resulting from a land/water classification based on Envisat ASAR, SRTM-SWBD and MERIS data. The water pixels of this map correspond to the class "Water Bodies" of the CCI-LC Maps.

The product consists of 3 layers:

Map land/permanent water classification at 300m spatial resolution. Legend : 1-Land, 2-Water,
NObsImsWS number of observations originating from the ASAR Wide Swath Mode + Image Monitoring Mode imagery,
NObsImsGM number of observations originating from the ASAR global monitoring mode imagery.

The planimetric data was compiled by The Sanborn Map Company, Inc for the Metropolitan District and is based on an aerial flight performed in April 2015. In addition, the City's GIS staff has been updating limited planimetric features based on information on file in various City departments. The planimetric data has also been updated in 2016 and yearly to current based on spring aerial flights by EagleView.

Named Waterbody is a 1:24,000-scale, polygon and line feature-based layer that includes all named waterbodies depicted on the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps for the State of Connecticut. This layer only includes features located in Connecticut. Named Waterbody features include water, dams, flow connectors, aqueducts, canals, ditches, shorelines, and islands. The layer does not include the marsh areas, tidal flats, rocks, shoals, or channels typically shown on USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps. However, the layer includes linear (flow) connector features that fill in gaps between river and stream features where water passes through marshes or underground through pipelines and tunnels. Note that connectors represent general pathways and do not represent the exact location or orientation of actual underground pipelines, tunnels, aqueducts, etc. The Named Waterbody layer is comprised of polygon and line features. Polygon features represent areas of water for rivers, streams, brooks, reservoirs, lakes, ponds, bays, coves, and harbors. Polygon features also depict related information such as dams and islands. Line features represent single-line rivers and streams, flow connectors, aqueducts, canals, and ditches. Line features also enclose all polygon features in the form of shorelines, dams, and closure lines separating adjacent water features. The Named Waterbody layer is based on information from USGS topographic quadrangle maps published between 1969 and 1984 so it does not depict conditions at any one particular point in time. Also, the layer does not reflect recent changes with the course of streams or location of shorelines impacted by natural events or changes in development since the time the USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps were published. Attribute information is comprised of codes to identify waterbody features by type, cartographically represent (symbolize) waterbody features on a map, select waterbodies appropriate to display at different map scales, identify individual waterbodies on a map by name, and describe waterbody feature area and length. The names assigned to individual waterbodies are based on information published on the USGS 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle maps or other state and local maps. The Named Waterbody layer does not include bathymetric, stream gradient, water flow, water quality, or biological habitat information. Derived from the Hydrography layer, the Named Waterbody layer was originally published in 1999. The 2005 edition includes the same water features published in 1999, however some attribute information has been slightly modified and made easier to use. Also, the 2005 edition corrects previously undetected attribute coding errors and includes the flow connector features.

The Water Framework Directive (WFD) sets out the basic principles for sustainable water policy. Its purpose is to establish a framework for the protection of inland surface waters, transitional waters, coastal waters and groundwater. The WFD aims to achieve good water status. The body of water is the elementary territorial division of aquatic environments intended to be the WFD assessment unit. A reference for water bodies is established for all waters in the Seine Normandy basin. It allows the development of the WFD management plan to achieve good water status.

This data concerns the Master Plan for Water Management 2022-027 (SDAGE) of the Seine Normandy Basin. It lists the surface water bodies: river body, transitional water body, coastal water body, body of water body water body

A river water body is a distinct and significant part of surface waters such as a river, river or canal, part of a river, river or canal. A transitional water body is a distinct and significant part of surface waters located near the mouths of rivers or rivers, which are partly salty because of their proximity to coastal waters but which remain fundamentally influenced by fresh water currents. A coastal water body is a distinct and significant part of the surface waters between the baseline used to measure the breadth of territorial waters and a distance of one nautical mile. A body of water body of water is a distinct and significant part of surface waters such as a lake, a reservoir.

The map represents permanent water bodies at global scale (lakes and reservoirs), derived from a corrected version of the Global Lakes and Wetlands Database. Resolution is 30 arcseconds (approx. 1km). Natural water bodies (lakes) are indicated by value 1, Reservoirs are indicated by value 2. The map should be used to integrate the global flood hazard maps.

ArcGIS Online Map Service created by Esri to provide access to: (1) Latin American and Caribbean 2015 Water Extent and (2) Latin American and Caribbean Water Bodies. The first dataset reflects the accumulation of the daily MODIS Surface Water detection product 3D3OT that is provided by the NASA’s MODIS Near Real-Time Global Flood Mapping Project, implementing the water detection algorithm of Dartmouth Flood Observatory (DFO). The dataset was produced by DFO for The Latin American Bank (CAF). The second dataset, the SRTM Water Body Data, is a by-product of the data editing performed by NGA to produce the finished SRTM Digital Terrain Elevation Data Level 2 (DTED® 2). In accordance with the DTED® 2 specification, the terrain elevation data have been edited to portray water bodies that meet minimum capture criteria. Ocean, lake and river shorelines were identified and delineated. Lake elevations were set to a constant value. Ocean elevations were set to zero. Rivers were stepped down monotonically to maintain proper flow. After this processing was done, the shorelines from the one arc second (approx. 30-meter) DTED® 2 were saved as vectors in ESRI 3-D Shapefile format. The dataset was produced by the USGS EROS for CAF. The data are hosted as tile layers in ArcGIS Online to improve performance. The water bodies layer is represented in dark blue and the water extent (aka flooding) in light blue. The original data can be downloaded from https://www.geosur.info.

A Google Earth Engine App developed to delineate water bodies around the globe from 1984 until present and to provide 16 day estimates of surface area of water bodies as well as shapefiles to the user. The app uses a novel framework to filters only those images that cloud is on top of the water body and allows users to choose from a list of spectral water indices to map water bodies. The app also allows users to select the choice of threshold (i.e., a fixed zero threshold or dynamic threshold to separate water form non-water background).

This dataset was extracted from OpenStreetMap (OSM) across the geographic area of Australia on 02 December 2021. Its purpose is to display Bodies of Water as an area (polygon) within Australia. Note, however, as this dataset is built by a community of mappers, there is no guarantee of its spatial or attribute accuracy. Use at your own risk. For more information about the map features represented in this dataset (including their attributes), refer to the OpenStreetMap Wiki. Please note: The original data for this dataset has been downloaded from Geofabrik on 02 December 2021. Due to changes in tagging, previous versions of OSM may not be comparable with this release.

The Terra Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) Global Water Bodies Database (ASTWBD) Version 1 data product provides global coverage of water bodies larger than 0.2 square kilometers at a spatial resolution of 1 arc second (approximately 30 meters) at the equator, along with associated elevation information.

The ASTWBD data product was created in conjunction with the ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model (ASTER GDEM) Version 3 data product by the Sensor Information Laboratory Corporation (SILC) in Tokyo. The ASTER GDEM Version 3 data product was generated using ASTER Level 1A scenes acquired between March 1, 2000, and November 30, 2013. The ASTWBD data product was then generated to correct elevation values of water body surfaces.

To generate the ASTWBD data product, water bodies were separated from land areas and then classified into three categories: ocean, river, or lake. Oceans and lakes have a flattened, constant elevation value. The effects of sea ice were manually removed from areas classified as oceans to better delineate ocean shorelines in high latitude areas. For lake water bodies, the elevation for each lake was calculated from the perimeter elevation data using the mosaic image that covers the entire area of the lake. Rivers presented a unique challenge given that their elevations gradually step down from upstream to downstream; therefore, visual inspection and other manual detection methods were required.

The geographic coverage of the ASTWBD extends from 83°N to 83°S. Each tile is distributed in GeoTIFF format and referenced to the 1984 World Geodetic System (WGS84)/1996 Earth Gravitational Model (EGM96) geoid. Each data product is provided as a zipped file that contains an attribute file with the water body classification information and a DEM file, which provides elevation information in meters.

The National Hydrography Dataset combines elements of the DLG and RF3spatial accuracy and comprehensiveness from the DLG and network relationships, names, and a unique identifier (reach code) for surface water features from RF3. The NHD supersedes DLG and RF3 by incorporating them, not by replacing them. Users of DLG and RF3 will find the National Hydrography Dataset both familiar and greatly expanded and refined. The NHD provides a national framework for assigning reach addresses to water-related entities such as industrial dischargers, drinking water supplies, fish habitat areas, wild and scenic rivers. Reach addresses establish the locations of these entities relative to one another within the NHD surface water drainage network in a manner similar to street addresses. Once linked to the NHD by their reach addresses, the upstream/downstream relationships of these water-related entities and any associated information about them can be analyzed using software tools ranging from spreadsheets to Geographic Information Systems (GIS). GIS can also be used to combine NHD-based network analysis with other data layers, such as soils, land use, and population, to help better understand and display their respective effects upon one another. Furthermore, because the NHD provides a nationally consistent framework for addresses and analysis, water-related information linked to reach addresses by one organization (national, state, local) can be shared with other organizations and easily integrated into many different types of applications to the benefit of all. The National Hydrography Dataset is designed to provide comprehensive coverage of hydrologic data for the US. While initially based on 1:100,000-scale data, the NHD is designed to incorporate and encourage the development of higher-resolution data required by many users. It will facilitate the improved integration of water-related data in support of the application requirements of a growing national user community and will enable shared maintenance and enhancement.

The Water Framework Directive (WFD) sets out the basic principles for sustainable water policy. Its purpose is to establish a framework for the protection of inland surface waters, transitional waters, coastal waters and groundwater. The WFD aims to achieve good water status.The body of water is the elementary territorial division of aquatic environments intended to be the evaluation unit of the WFD.This data concerns the Master Plan for Water Management 2016-2021 (SDAGE) of the Seine Normandy Basin. It provides for all water bodies in the basin the status of the water body and the objectives assigned to it in the SDAGE 2016-2021

Water bodies refer to a surface, open, natural or anthropogenic surface freshwater area of varying depths. The term “water body” covers a number of situations commonly referred to as lake, containment, pond, gravel, quarry or marsh. By convention, water bodies corresponding to gravel or quarries during the period in which they fall under the mining code are not included in this layer. Water bodies are described by their use(s) according to a predefined usage typology. By convention, for the sake of consistency with Cascade, the typology ‘pisciculture’ shall apply, irrespective of the species produced, to a use of the water body covered by: — the rules on ICPEs (heading 2130 of Decree 206-942 of 27 July 2006) when regular feeding and production exceeding 20T/year; — Article L431-6 of the Code de l’environnement et de la police de l’eau (section 3.2.7.0 of Decree 206-881 of 17 July 2006) if there is no regular feeding or production less than 20T/year. A similar layer N_PLAN_EAU_P (#47) describes the centroids of water bodies. A N_AUTRE_PISCI_S layer describes off-water fish farms.
