Abstract

This dataset provides an inventory of drainage gates and associated hydraulic infrastructure in Region 4, Guyana. The dataset includes 65 gate records with information on structure identification, geographic location, projected coordinates, number of gate openings, invert elevations, opening widths, available gate heights, and selected road and drainage invert elevations.
Additional field observations document structure conditions and associated infrastructure, including non-operational gates, pump stations, mobile pumping facilities, and different gate configurations. Several entries identify measurements requiring further verification.
The dataset is intended to support drainage infrastructure assessments, hydraulic and hydrodynamic modeling, flood risk analysis, and the development and evaluation of drainage management strategies. The inventory can also serve as a reference for future field verification, infrastructure assessments, and operational planning.
The data are provided in CSV format. Some attributes are incomplete or subject to verification. The coordinate reference system and vertical datum should be confirmed before integrating the dataset into geospatial and hydraulic modeling applications.
