This raster layer (90m resolution) identifies stream segments in the CORB-Contributing area. Each segment has a specific grid code, which will be fundamental in later modelling of the hydrological network. Source: This layer was created by computations of the Flow Direction and Stream Segmentation raster grids. This dataset is part of the GIS Database for the Environment Protection and Sustainable Management of the Okavango River Basin project (EPSMO). Detailed information on the database can be found in the “GIS Database for the EPSMO Project†document produced by Luis Veríssimo (FAO consultant) in July 2009, and here available for download.

This vector layer (point) represents the points at which stream segments intersect in the CORB-Contributing area, and can aid in the identified of locations for potential hydrological monitoring. This was created by an interpolation of all stream intersections in the Drainage Line layer. This dataset is part of the GIS Database for the Environment Protection and Sustainable Management of the Okavango River Basin project (EPSMO). Detailed information on the database can be found in the “GIS Database for the EPSMO Project†document produced by Luis Veríssimo (FAO consultant) in July 2009, and here available for download.

This vector layer (polygon) - reference scale 1/200 000 - also identifies the catchment area for each stream segment in the CORB-Contributing area. The value for each polygon corresponds to the value carried by the stream segment that drains that area, defined in the Stream Segmentation grid. Source: This layer was created by converting the Catchment Grid raster layer into vector format. This dataset is part of the GIS Database for the Environment Protection and Sustainable Management of the Okavango River Basin project (EPSMO).
