Abstract
AbstractThe authors presents a set of automated geographic information system (GIS)-based geoprocessing tools for the implementation of one-dimensional hydrodynamic (1D-HD) models that simulate an unsteady open channel flow through a channel network. The authors’ aim is to determine the degree of automation that is granted in the process of preparing river bathymetry and model parameters for 1D-HD model simulations. The authors present two case implementations to illustrate the use of the geoprocessing tools and to demonstrate how they can simplify some of the preprocessing tasks required for preparing model parameters. The authors present a statistical analysis of the automated algorithms performance for finding bank stations and show that it performs adequately in the authors’ study basins.
