To view subbasins and subwatersheds within the stream network, perform the following:

  1. Select your desired Navigation direction, Upstream or Downstream.
  2. Click a point on the map. Subbasins and subwatersheds upstream or downstream of the selected location will be returned in the map. The Select Subwatershed tab in the tool pop-up shows statistics about the network of hydrologic units.

Upstream navigation

When you choose to view Upstream hydrologic units, EnviroAtlas displays the following:


Downstream navigation

When you choose the Downstream option, the map displays high-resolution subwatersheds (HUC-12) along the stream course downstream from your selected location to the outlet. The table in the HUC12 Navigator tool displays downstream network statistics.


Aggregate Indicators

The Aggregate Indicators tab in the HUC12 Navigator tool allows for viewing summed or averaged EnviroAtlas metrics (indicators) for the upstream or downstream subwatershed network.

The EnviroAtlas HUC12 Navigator tool displays the sum or average of the indicator values for the entire displayed hydrologic network.
