The data package is organized into five data tables:
- Projects.csv - describes the purpose and background of the monitoring efforts
- Locations.csv - documents the attributes of the monitoring locations/stations
- Results.csv - contains the field measurements, observations, and/or lab analyses for each sample/event/data grouping
- HUC12.csv - enumerates the domain of allowed values for 12-digit hydrologic unit codes utilized by the Locations datatable
- Characteristics.csv - enumerates the domain of characteristics available in NPSTORET to identify what was sampled, measured or observed in Results
