The dataset not only provides the statistical results of the average imperviousness of the watersheds and the demonstration area in different time periods, but also reveals the spatial and temporal characteristics of the imperviousness of the subsurface (i.e., the surface cover) through the comparative analysis of the time series. This information is essential for understanding the hydrologic cycle process in the watersheds and for assessing the risk of flooding and the storage and drainage capacity.
