This repository, produced from lidar data, is offered by hydrographic division unit (UDH). The deployment of this geobase is carried out progressively by levels of completeness (NC). Ultimately, it will cover the territory of southern Quebec. During the deployment phase of the repository, [the Quebec Hydrographic Network Geobase (GRHQ)] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/fr/dataset/grhq), the GRHQ-HR as well as [potential flow beds] (https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/lits-d-ecoulements-potentiels-issus-du-lidar) from the lidar will be simultaneously available on Data Quebec for this portion of the territory. The GRHQ-HR includes a 3D linear geometric network, which represents the continuity and direction of flow in all types of aquatic entities (streams, lakes, wetlands, etc.). This network is created by modeling potential flow beds and completed by central flow lines (simplified representation of hydrographic surfaces in central lines). This geobase is part of a strategy to update the cartographic map of Quebec's hydrography. It was carried out in partnership with the Ministry of the Environment, the Fight against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks (MELCCFP). # #Caractéristiques UDH completeness levels## Each level of completeness characterizes the level of work editing, validation, and descriptive content of the datasets. Thematic and toponymic data will enhance the datasets. ### #NC -1 (primary geometric network) #### * Potential and filamentary flow beds derived from hydrographic, oriented and topological surfaces. * Defined priority level (allows network analyses). * Presence of certain basic attributes (sustainability, network connection, network connection, accumulation of flows, flow accumulation, flow accumulation, Strahler and Horton orders, distance from upstream, distance from downstream). * Linear reference system (road numbers, coordinates). * Presence of certain basic attributes (sustainability, network connection, accumulation of flows, flow accumulation, flow accumulation, Strahler and Horton orders, distance from upstream, distance from downstream). * Linear reference system (road numbers, coordinates) M of the vertices). * Hydrographic surfaces of the GRHQ on a scale of 1/20,000 (2D). * Presence of certain toponyms in attribute. * Hydrocoherent numerical terrain models (GeoTIFF). * Flow accumulation matrices (GeoTIFF). * Flow direction matrices (GeoTIFF). ### #NC -2 (improved geometric network) #### * Characteristics of NC-1. * Update of hydrographic surfaces by photogrammetry. * Correction of potential flow bed path errors and update of downstream filamentaries. * Partial addition of hydrographic thematic data (dams, falls, reservoirs, reefs, islands, wetlands, rapids). * Lidar survey date index. * Topical nesting biological matrices. * Update of hydrocoherent numerical terrain models. * Update of flow direction matrices. * Update of flow accumulation matrices. ### #NC -3 (thematic improvement) #### * Characteristics of the NC-2. * Hydrographic themes completed (breakwaters, docks). * Addition of toponyms. ### #NC -4 (improvement of toponymic content) #### * Characteristics of NC-3. * Continuity of toponymic data on geometries. * Additions of named entities.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
