Metadata: Identification_Information: Citation: Citation_Information: Title: SB_streams_WGS84 Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data Description: Abstract: This GIS dataset includes hydrological flowpaths for the South Bamyan area of interest (AOI) derived from its corresponding Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) data (30 m resolution). Purpose: Multi-use hydrographic dataset to be used in the assessment, monitoring, and management of Afghanistan's mineral deposits.
