New Brunswick Hydrographic Network (NBHN)

Layer depicts the coastline of the province as interpreted from aerial imagery collected by the department.

Layers contain geometry which represents disturbances or impedances to the natural flow of water in a watercourse, waterbody, or wetland.

Layer depicts islands, including inland and coastal islands in the ocean, of the province as interpreted from aerial imagery collected by the department.

Layer depicts where water flows within the network meet. Junctions are coded to indicate the kind of hydrographic network, waterbody that meet at that point.

This feature class contains geometry representing human made structures constructed to control water levels, or to gain access to a watercourse, waterbody, or wetland.

Layers and table represent features with a known name identified as part of the creation of the NBHN.

This feature class contains point geometry that represents the location of water gauges collecting continuous water measurements. These contain attributes that identify and describe each gauge.

This feature class contains the waterbody polygon geometry for the New Brunswick Hydrographic Network. It contains classified waterbodies and associated attributes. The data has been collected for the entire province from a period from 2003 to present and is being continuously updated. The first release of the NBHN was in January of 2012.

This feature class contains the watercourse line geometry for the New Brunswick Hydrographic Network. It contains observed streams as well as inferred centrelines representing an approximate centreline path through waterbodies and around islands within the waterbodies. The data has been collected for the entire province from a period from 2003 to present and is being continuously updated. The first release of the NBHN was in January of 2012. 

Level 2 Watersheds derived from the hydrographic features included as part of the NBHN.
