    <descript>
      <abstract>The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Puerto Rico Environmental Quality Board, has compiled a series of geospatial datasets for Puerto Rico to be implemented into the USGS StreamStats application (https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/). These geospatial datasets, along with basin characteristics datasets for Puerto Rico published as a separate USGS data release (https://doi.org/10.5066/P9HK9SSQ), were used to delineate watersheds and develop the peak-flow and low-flow regression equations used by StreamStats. The geospatial dataset described herein are the digital elevation model rasters from NED, at a 10-m resolution, elevations in centimeters.  Data are partitioned into four TIFF files, one for each of the four 8-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) areas for Puerto Rico: 21010002, 21010003, 21010004, and 21010005.</abstract>
      <purpose>Data were obtained in order to support the U.S. Geological Survey update of the peak flow and low flow regression equations for Puerto Rico, and for incorporation into the Puerto Rico StreamStats application.</purpose>

        <procdesc>The elevation raster from the USGS National Elevation Dataset (NED) was clipped to the boundary of Puerto Rico and projected to Puerto Rico-US Virgin Islands State Plane (NAD 83) at a 10-m pixel resolution. Buffered areas for each National Hydrography Watershed Boundary Dataset, 8-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) were used to partition data into four HUC8 regions, 21010002, 21010003, 21010004, and 21010005. Digital elevation model rasters were calculated at a 10-m resolution for each of these regions using the StreamStats Tools (V3.10) HydroDEM tools, Pre HydroDEM Processing, HydroDEM.aml, and Agree.aml scripts.</procdesc>
