Abstract：
The Irtysh River is an international river. In the dataset, the Irtysh River Oasis covers China part is located in Altai Administrative Region and Beitun City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The geolocation of the Irtysh River Oasis is 45°58′06″N - 48°23′18″N, 85°31′35″E - 90°59′29″E. The Irtysh River Oasis consists of 78 oases with a total area of 12,101.72 km² (Albers) in 2020. The largest oasis has an area of 10,051.42 km². The main rivers that nourish the oases are the Irtysh River and Ulungur River rivers, whose main streams are 619.12 km and 554.93 km long respectively. The area of the mountainous part of the basin is 65,845,00 km². The elevation of the mountainous part of the basin is divided into 8 categories. The dataset includes: (1) the boundary of the oasis; (2) the water systems that nourish the oasis; (3) the boundaries of the mountainous part of the basin; and (4) the elevation classification of the mountainous part of the basin. The dataset consists of 61 data files in .kmz, .shp and .tif data formats, with data size of 133 MB (compressed into 5 files with 58 MB).
