• nhdid: the 'Permanent_identifier' from the NHD, but is called the NHDID in LAGOS-NE

• lagosname1: name of lake from source dataset used as the authoritative lake name for LAGOSNE

• meandepth: mean lake depth (meters)

• meandepthsource: source of mean depth data, see "lagos_source_program" for definitions

• maxdepth: maximum lake depth (meters)

• maxdepthsource: source of maximum depth data, see "lagos_source_program" for definitions

• legacyid: unique lake identifier from the original water quality source dataset, this is not standardized and each source dataset has its own system
