WMO Basins

WMO Basins and Sub-Basins (WMOBB) is an ongoing GIS project of the Global Runoff Data Centre (GRDC). It is provided for public use under the condition of full citation and reference to incorporated data from the HydroSHEDS database.

Hydrologically, WMO Basins are both river/lake basins with exorheic drainage, wherein all waters flow to a common outlet, ultimately into an ocean, but also basins with endorheic drainage, where all waters are collected in sinks or lakes not connected to other basins.

Consists of layers: 'River Networks' and 'Basins'.
