Abstract
Height Above Nearest Drainage (HAND) is an approach for estimating the vertical height of any point on the landscape from the nearest stream surface or bed. The first version 0.1 of this dataset is based on the U.S. Geological Survey's National Elevation Dataset (NED) with 10-meter horizontal resolution, comprising raster data for the 331 HUC-6 units in conterminous U.S. (CONUS), excluding the five units of the great lakes. This was developed at the UIUC CyberGIS supercomputing facility, and is now archived at the UT Austin TACC (Texas Advanced Computing Center) for download [1]. As of summer 2020, it has been updated to version 0.2, now hosted at Oak Ridge National Lab's HPC server [2]. The 2017 Harvey subset of CONUS HAND is at [3].
In 2023, Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) computed the 3-meter HAND for Texas, see [4].
To interactively select HAND data by HUC6 basin in either the Harvey or Irma hydrologic study area, use the Harvey Archive Story Map [https://arcg.is/1rWLzL0] or the Irma Archive Story Map [http://arcg.is/PSOKH] and click on the HAND tab. To directly browse this data for anywhere in CONUS, visit [1] or [2].
