Description:

Abstract:

The Lines of Gross and Effective Drainage Area Boundaries is an ESRI coverage of the linework from which most of the PFRA Watersheds products are derived.

Purpose:

To supply the thematic layer of gross and effective drainage area boundaries of the PFRA Watershed Project for hydroligic analyses and mapping in watershed management across the Canadian prairies.
