Interpretive Summary: This paper describes the spatial information available about the Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed. The data are available as Geographic Information System (GIS) files. Available layers are listed, and each layer is described. All data are available as either images or separate GIS layers (vector or raster format) via the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Southwest Watershed Research Center (SWRC) at http://www.tucson.ars.ag.gov/dap/.

Technical Abstract: We describe the geographic information system (GIS) database complementing the Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed (WGEW) companion papers in this issue of Water Resources Research. The spatial data layers will be especially useful to researchers interested in understanding spatial characteristics of rainfall, runoff, erosion and sedimentation processes on WGEW. All data are available as either images or separate GIS layers (vector or raster format) via the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Southwest Watershed Research Center (SWRC) at http://www.tucson.ars.ag.gov/dap/.
