Explore renewable energy (RE) potential around the world: RE Explorer provides renewable energy data, analytical tools, and technical assistance to developers, policymakers, and decision makers in developing countries. RE Explorer enables users to make meaningful decisions that support low-emission development and ultimately reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
HydroSHEDS provides seamless hydrographic data products including catchment boundaries, river networks, and lakes. The various existing sub-datasets are consistent across multiple scales and resolutions in order to support regional and global hydro-environmental modeling and freshwater conservation efforts.
GRDC Major River Basins of the World (MRB) 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 (Lehner 2013). This is the 2nd, revised edition 2020 and replaces the basin polygons […]
Global-scale hydrology concentrates on the role of the terrestrial hydrological cycle in System Earth. In particular it focuses on the role of climate variability on continental hydrology, on land-surface atmosphere feedbacks and the modelling of global water scarcity and groundwater depletion. To this purpose we have built a next-generation global hydrological and water resources model PCR-GLOBWB.
The JRC-EFAS-Hydropower dataset contains the weekly hydropower inflow of pure storage plants and the daily run-of-river generation for 27 European countries. The dataset is based on the river discharge provided by the European Flood Awareness System (EFAS) and on the JRC Hydropower.
MERIT Hydro is a global hydrography datasets, developed based on the MERIT DEM and multiple inland water maps. It contains flow direction, flow accumulation, hydrologically adjusted elevations, and river channel width.
