The geolocation of the Heilongjiang (Amur) River Basin is 107°31′43″E in the west to 141°14′22″E in the east and 41°42′39″N in the south to 55°56′20″N in the north. The total area of the river basin is 2,083,345.35 km²，the boundary of the basin is 16,834.48 km long. The dataset was developed based on the ASTER-DEM with the statistic models and validated by the google earth images. The data is archived in both .kmz and .shp formats with the compressed data size of 5.25 MB.Browse
