Additional information

Identifier	DOI: https://doi.org/10.26023/N2G2-3QF6-0G08
Data Quality	final
Versions	1.0 (2008-10-07) 1.1 (2016-11-07): This version contains two files: the first is a directory of HADS Data Collection Platforms (DCP -http://www.nws.noaa.gov/oh/hads/) sites, the second is NWS Location Identifiers.  A good portion of sites on either list might not be gauge sites, but probably all gauges can be found on at least one of them. The shapefile will need to be extract from the zipfile by users. When they add they can symbolize using Gridcode field. (Only the current version of the data is available to order. If you have questions about a prior version, please email us.)
