1
Watershed Parameters for Water Rights in the Trinity River Basin Melissa Figurski CE 394K
2
Project Goal Determine Watershed Parameters for Water Rights in the Trinity Basin Upstream Area Average Upstream Precipitation Average Upstream Curve Number
3
Purpose Water Availability Modeling State Mandated Resource Planning and Management TNRCC, CRWR, and Contractor
4
Data Requirements 30-meter Digital Elevation Model (DEM) Stream Network Water Right Locations Curve Number Grid Precipitation Grid
5
Previous Method Wrap1117.apr Developed by Brad Hudgens 6 Basins completed with Wrap1117
6
Trinity River Basin
7
Why not use the old method? 237 million grid cells 11-day processing 1649 water rights
8
New Idea Separate the Trinity into smaller watersheds (HUCs) Use Wrap1117 on individual HUCs Account for upstream contributions with ArcInfo 8
9
Procedure
10
Delineate HUC Watersheds Burn stream network into DEM Locate outlet points for each HUC Buffer each HUC Clip burned DEM to buffered HUC Run ArcInfo workstation ‘fill’, ‘flowaccumulation’, and ‘watershed’ commands on each buffered HUC
11
Outlet Points Locate Outlet Points for each HUC
12
Buffer HUCs and Clip DEM 5000 meter bufferClipped DEM
13
ArcInfo Workstation Functions Fill burned DEM Determine flow direction and flow accumulation Delineate HUC watershed Flow Direction+Outlet Cells=Watershed
14
Completed Delineation
15
Delineation Problems
16
Gather Data Select water rights and stream network in HUC 12030102
17
WRAP1117 Flow direction stream network
18
WRAP1117 Snap Points to Stream Network
19
WRAP1117 Average PrecipitationAverage Curve Number
20
WRAP1117 Create Network Schematic
21
WRAP1117 Delineate Incremental Watersheds
22
WRAP1117 Read Water Right Parameters
23
Future Work
24
ArcInfo 8 Create network
25
ArcInfo 8 Set flags at inlet and outlet ‘Find Path’ between outlets Export water rights on path Add upstream data in table
26
Summary New method needed Segment basin into HUC units Run Wrap1117 on individual HUCs Use ArcInfo 8 to account for upstream data
