EU-Hydro River Network Database 2006-2012 (vector), Europe - version 1.3, Nov. 2020

Other

EU-Hydro is a dataset for all EEA38 countries and the United Kingdom providing photo-interpreted river network, consistent of surface interpretation of water bodies (lakes and wide rivers), and a drainage model (also called Drainage Network), derived from EU-DEM, with catchments and drainage lines and nodes. The EU-Hydro dataset is distributed in separate files (river network and drainage network) for each of the 35 major basins of the EEA38 + UK area, in GDB and GPKG formats. The production of EU-Hydro and the derived layers was coordinated by the European Environment Agency in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme.
