GIS data set built by the US Geological Survey (USGS) Contains hydrographic features such as lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, dams, canals and stream gages. Stream flowlines have associated flow directions to allow for its use in hydrographic modeling. Names for rivers, lakes and other hydrographic features taken from the federal Geographic Names Information System. Work on current high resolution NHD (1:24k scale) begun in 2002, completed in Kentucky Division of Water is the state NHD Data Steward.

Database holds the federally recognized names of geographic features across the USA. Maintained by the US Board of Geographic Names (BGN). BGN collecting geographic names since Has partnerships with various state, federal and local agencies to collect and reconcile geographic place names. The Kentucky portion of the GNIS has existed since 1979.

NHD feature missing GNIS ID and/or Name Incorrect NHD feature bears GNIS ID/Name GNIS ID/Name assigned to incorrect headwaters stream. NHD Feature has a GNIS ID but has not been digitized into the NHD.

Duplicate GNIS records Occurs along state borders Artifact from early days of the GNIS database Misplaced coordinates for the mouth and/or source of a stream Associated geographic feature no longer exists (ex. drained lake/reservoir) BGN designates ‘lost’ geographic features as ‘historical’ No GNIS records are deleted.

Problems with the GNIS are to be reported to the BGN at Include GNIS ID and Name of problem feature. The nature of the problem (ex. duplicate GNIS records) The name of the USGS 7.5 minute topographic map quad in which this feature may be found. To propose or change a name:
