4.16. Major hydrological basins of the world#
This dataset was obtained by delineating drainage basin boundaries from hydrologically corrected elevation data (HydroSHEDS and Hydro1K). Input data resolution is 15 arc-seconds between 60 N and 60 S latitude (based on SRTM), and 30 arc-seconds for higher latitudes (based on GTOPO30). The dataset consists of the following information: numerical code (MAJ_BAS), name (MAJ_NAME) and area (MAJ_AREA) of the major basin in square km. Coordinate system: WGS 84. Data source: https://data.apps.fao.org/map/catalog/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/7707086d-af3c-41cc-8aa5-323d8609b2d1
