In/Output

Describe input parameters Digital elevation model
Input format Binary
Other input format GeoTIFF and Shapefiles
Describe output parameters Hydrologic information derived from DEM
Output format Binary
Other output format GeoTIFF and Shapefiles
Pre-processing software needed? No
Describe pre-processing software
Post-processing software needed? No
Describe post-processing software
Visualization software needed? Yes
If above answer is yes ESRI
Other visualization software Any software that can visualize GeoTIFF and shapefiles can visualize the output


Process

Describe processes represented by the model Flow processes that are driven by the topographic gradient
Describe key physical parameters and equations Elevation, slope and contributing area related quantities
Describe length scale and resolution constraints Applies to any resolution topographic grid, though is most sensible for grids with resolution from 2 to 50 m.
Describe time scale and resolution constraints This is a static model so there is no time scale or resolution
Describe any numerical limitations and issues Presently limited to grids up to 4GB


Testing

Describe available calibration data sets This is not a model with adjustable parameters so calibration is not required. Example datasets are available
Upload calibration data sets if available:
Describe available test data sets The Logan River DEM is a small test dataset useful for learning how to use the software
Upload test data sets if available: Media:LoganDemo.zip
Describe ideal data for testing


Other

Do you have current or future plans for collaborating with other researchers? Yes
Is there a manual available? Yes
Upload manual if available:
