Description: Back to main DNR Watershed Suite metadata page These data consists of over 10,000 watershed polygon delineations in one seamless dataset of drainage areas called Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Catchments. The DNR Catchment dataset extends into adjacent states and Canada where water flows into Minnesota, or a Minnesota bordering water, and/or where the DNR Catchment extends across the state boundary. The 2023 Watershed Delineation Update includes additional catchments that represent watershed contributing areas that flow into a Minnesota bordering water. These catchments were derived from the USGS HUC12s that represent these watersheds and integrated into the catchment dataset. The USGS HUC12’s were extracted from the WBD Dataset on March 2023 and were checked for harmonization of polygon boundaries using ArcGIS 10.8.1 topology tools. Minnesota DNR Catchments are the smallest delineated and digitized drainage area mapped by the Minnesota DNR Watershed Delineation Project. The overall goal of this mapping effort is to produce the best watershed delineations available that reflect the current hydrology of the landscape as interpreted from as many data sources necessary to derive acceptable catchment delineations. Minnesota DNR Catchments are delineated from the perspective of hydrologists who refrained from allowing cartography to drive the delineation linework. This was accomplished by excluding political boundaries and cartographic esthetics during the delineation procedure, focusing instead, on landscape hydrology. Minnesota DNR Catchments contain all of the land area (including all water features), upstream from, or between DNR Pour Points. Therefore, Minnesota DNR Catchments are not scale dependent. There is no size limit as to how large or small the delineation may be, an individual DNR Catchment in the dataset may represent the drainage area of a 1-acre prairie wetland or a 100-acre recreational lake.
