BAGIS-P Data Bin Layers (ftp://basins.geog.pdx.edu/BAGIS/BAGIS_data_bin/)

BAGIS required data layers for eWSF PRMS parameterization are collected and stored in an ArcGIS File Geodatabase (FGDB). The databin FGDB contains the following layers.

Current Databin version: BAGIS_DATABIN_09222015.gdb (File size: 8.9 GB)

Please refer to the BAGIS-P Users Manual for instructions of using the databin layers in BAGIS-P.

See BAGIS-P Databin page for information of STATSGO soil attributes data.

PET & Solar Radiation Layers (ftp://basins.geog.pdx.edu/BAGIS/BAGIS_data_bin/)

Additional, supplemental GIS layers for the estimation of PE and SR parameters on the nmonth table were provided by George Leavesley and are stored in an ArcGIS File Geodatabase (PE_SR_Obs_nmonth_Databin_XXXXXXXX.gdb). The PE and SR databin FGDB contains the following layers.
