README.txt
FlowDivide v1.1 · MERIT Hydro 90 m
==================================

Released      2026-09-20, files rebuilt 2026-09-28
Code          FullHydro C code v9.91 (FlowDivide)

What changed
  Region mask at capacity 1400 square degrees: 90 regions (v1.0 had 96).
  A region is a whole HydroBASINS Level-02 unit where it fits;
  units 35, 56, 77 and 91 are divided.
  New: basin groups at HydroBASINS Level-01, Level-02 and Level-03.
  Basins unchanged: same 24,587,290 outlets, same ids and pixel counts;
  bsn_*, bnd_* and the basin table are the v1.0 files.
