            <abstract>The 3D Hydrography Program (3DHP) data is an integrated, National, 3D-enabled hydrologic dataset derived from the USGS 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) data. For areas where Elevation-derived Hydrography (EDH) has not yet been collected, 3DHP data is supplemented by hydrologic vector data from the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). As further EDH data is collected, it will replace the NHD data in those areas. 3DHP data ingested from EDH sources includes ‘value added’ catchments and flowline network derivative attributes. All the data is open and non-proprietary. However, users should be aware that temporal changes may have occurred since this dataset was collected and that some parts of this data may no longer represent actual surface conditions. Users should not use this data for critical applications without a full awareness of its limitations. This dataset is not intended to be used for site-specific regulatory determinations. 3DHP datasets include a three-dimensional (3D) hydrography network generated from, and integrated with, elevation data from the 3DEP to better represent stream gradients and channel conditions, along with waterbodies, hydrologic units, hydrologically enhanced elevation and other surfaces, and more consistent and accurate attributes. This product is new in federal fiscal year 2025 (FY25),  and consists only of vector data in a series of feature classes. The product represents the 3DHP dataset and the schema in which it is contained as of September 30, 2024 Future Annual Staged Product releases will reflect the schema at the time the product is generated and include more EDH-sourced data holdings.</abstract>
            <purpose>These data create a scalable 3D-in-part geospatial hydrography framework for general purpose use in geospatial analysis, visualization, modeling, cartography and other use cases</purpose>

                <srccontr>NHD data was used for 3DHP 'national backbone', that is to get hydrologic coverage across the Nation. It was created in conjunction with the most current WBD, and 3DEP DEMs to create a hydro-enforced DEM for generation of the catchment raster and feature class, and flow direction/accumulation rasters, and used to compute and assign NHDFlowline Value Added Attributes (VAAs) in 3DHP (more details are available in the product's ReadMe file included as part of this dataset.)</srccontr>
