Abstract：
The Yangguan Oasis is located in Dunhuang and Aksai Kazakh Autonomous County in Jiuquan, Gansu Province, China. The geolocation of the Yangguan Oasis is between 39°34′00″N and 40°07′32″N，93°58′47″E and 94°21′45″E. The Yangguan Oasis consists of 15 oases with a total area of 83.18 km² (Albers). In which, the largest oasis covers an area of 40.80 km². The main rivers that nourish the Yangguan Oasis are Quancaoqu River, Shagou River and Donggou River, and their main streams are 124.58 km, 112.62 km and 59.05 km respectively. The geolocation of the mountainous part of the Yangguan catchment is between 39°15′17″N and 39°28′54″N, 93°50′13″E and 94°34′15″E. The area of the catchment is 819.00 km². The elevation of the mountainous catchment was divided into 7 types. The dataset is consisted of (1) boundary data of the Oasis; (2) boundary data of the mountainous part of the catchment; (3) river system; (4) elevation classification data of the mountainous catchment. The dataset is archived in .kmz, .shp and .tif data formats, and consists of 49 data files with data size of 9.96 MB (Compressed to 4 files with 3.82 MB).
