TimeSeries

Point with (x,y,z) coordinates (default z = 0)

LocationID links points toassociated time series of measured or calculated data

IsNetworkFlag = 1 means pointis included in the HydroNetwork,(converse is IsnetworkFlag = 0)

Seedpoint

A seedpoint locates the center of the outlet cell of a DEM

watershed

OutletOID links this point to thecorresponding OutletJunction on

the Hydronetwork

Since the seedpoints are just upstream of the confluence,they unique identify separate upstream drainage areas 1 and 2

Subclasses: Catchment, Watershed,Basin, HydroResponseUnit

Catchment

A catchment is the localdrainage area of a Reach

Shoreline Catchment-ReachID : esriFieldTypeInteger-BasinID : esriFieldTypeInteger

Catchment

The local drainage area of a shoreline reach

Its drainage enters a waterbody directly without passing through a river or stream

Waterbody Catchment

Waterbody is a catchmentand separate catchmentsare defined for shorelines

A single catchment polygonincludes both the waterbody and its local drainage area

Two ways of defining catchments for water bodies

Catchment

Watershed

Watersheds defined for pointson the HydroNetwork

Watershed defined for a Waterbody

Watershed

The Watershed class is used for any subdivision of the landscape into drainage units

Basin-BasinID : esriFieldTypeInteger

A standardized set of watersheds defined for the purposes of formal subdivision of the landscape into labeled drainage areas e.g. Watershed Boundary Dataset

This example shows 8-digit HUC boundaries so BasinID = HUC8

Basin Outlet

Basins contain Catchments and Watersheds

Catchment

Watershed

HydroResponseUnit-HRUID : esriFieldTypeInteger-WatershedID : esriFieldTypeInteger

HydroResponseUnit

The HydroResponseUnit class be defined by soil or land use polygons, by climate or rainfall cells, by political or administrative boundaries, by aquifer or drainage boundaries, or by any combination of such areas.

HRUs definedby intersectingNexrad rainfall cellsand catchments

HRU’s account for the vertical water exchange between the atmosphere, surface water and groundwater

HydroNetwork «FeatureDataset»ArcGIS Hydro Features

Hydro Objects

Hydro Domains

The Hydro Network is the backbone of the ArcGIS Hydro data model. It defines the connections among points, lines and areas to describe the pathways of water flow through the landscape

Two key classesHydroEdge and OutletJunction

Geometric Network

A Geometric network is defined by:• geometry – (x, y) of edges, junctions• connectivity – junction-edge-junction

-NetworkType : esriNetworkType = esriNTUtilityNetwork

«GeometricNetwork»HydroNetwork

Generic junctions(created automatically)

OutletJunctions

HydroEdges

HydroEdgeESRI Classes::ComplexEdgeFeature

Color andSelect edges

A HydroEdge is a ComplexEdge Feature so it can haveinterior junctions

OutletJunction

The OutletJunction of a Watershedis located on the Hydronetwork asclose as possible to the seedpointlocation on the DEM

OutletJunction{GeometryType = esriGeometryPoint,

HasZ = True}

Seedpoints as OutletJunctions

10-digit watersheds19 seedpoints

NED-H Catchments (~ 8km2)1026 seed points

The same concept can be used to connect drainageareas to the Hydronetwork regardless of spatial scale

OutletJunction to Watershed Relationship

-Watershed

OutletToWatershed -BasinID : esriFieldTypeInteger-WatershedID : esriFieldTypeInteger-OutletOID : esriFieldTypeInteger

Hydro Features::Watershed

Outlets are 1:1 related to watersheds through the ObjectId of the Outlet (OutletOID).

Traces on the HydroNetwork identify OutletJunctions, and by invoking the relationship, the associated Watersheds are identified

FlowEdge«Subtype»

VirtualFlowEdge«Subtype»

ShorelineEdge«Subtype»

HydroEdges have three subtypes: FlowEdges, VirtualFlowEdges and ShorelineEdges

Flow Lines for Water Modeling

A Flow Line isa linear sequence offlow edges and/orvirtual Flow Edges

Strictly speaking, the flowline is located at theCenter of Flow but its locationis usually approximated to the channel centerline or thalweg

Equations of motion are written in termsof flow distance for 1-D flow models

Flow Network

HydroNetwork = Flow Network + Shorelines

A flow network is a connected set of flow lines

When a waterbody is placed on the network, it can berepresented by Virtual Flow Edges, by Shoreline Edgesor by both edge types

Flow Direction

+FieldType = esriFieldTypeInteger+MergePolicy = esriMPTDefaultValue+SplitPolicy = esriSPTDefaultValue+Unknown = 0+WithDigitized = 1+AgainstDigitized = 2+Bidirectional = 3

«CodedValueDomain»Hydro Domains::HydroFlowDirections

Flow Direction in the HydroNetworkis downstream toward a sink

Flow direction can be storedas an edge attribute by comparingit with the direction in which the edge was digitized as given by the order of its vertices

HydroEdge Attributes

• ReachID labels the HydroEdges for linear referencinge.g. RchComID linked to Rch_Code in NHD• LengthinMeters stores the length of the edge irrespectiveof map projection• LengthDownstream stores the length to a downstreamreference point, such as the mouth of the river or the basin outlet
