The RiverBasins feature class contains polygons outlining the extent of each of the salmon river watersheds that fall within that DFO detachment area. Polygons were delineated using provincial DEMs, National Hydro Network (NHN) river features, the DFO detachment area boundary, and tools contained in the ArcHydro toolset for ArcPro GIS software. The SalmonNetwork feature class contains lines which show the flow (undirected) of the river network through each of the salmon river watersheds that fall within that DFO…
