ARC GIS IN THE SANTA RIVER BASIN IN PERU GIS in Water Resources Fall 2006 Professor: Dr. David Maidment Presented by Presented by Eusebio Ingol OUTLINE Objectives Study Area Data Sources Information Process Arc Hydro for the river Basin Precipitation and runoff Conclusions Objectives Apply GIS for generating information in the Santa River Basin. Delineate watershed and streams. Calculate of Precipitation in the watershed. Analysis of runoff in the Condocerro Station. Determine some parameters of the basin of study. Study Area Santa River basin. Department of Ancash in the North Peru. Parallels 10 15 and 07 55 Latitude South and Meridians 78 45 and 77 05Longitude West Data Sources Coordinates of 17 stations with average values of rainfall ( ). Average discharges in the Condocerro Station ( ). The exercises 3, 4, and 6 were the base for developing this term project. The exercises 3, 4, and 6 were the base for developing this term project.

Time Series for the Condocerro Station Maps generated with the Application of Arc Hydro L = km Hydro junctions and Hydro Edges Direction of Flow Longest Flow Path Estimation of the Precipitation Use Thiessen Polygon Annual precipitation for 17 stations. Monthly Mean Precipitation for the Watersheds Mean Precipitation for the Watersheds At = 12,166 km2. Vr = 6, 210,330,430 m3 Analysis of Discharge Stream gage Condocerro Conclusions Arc Hydro in ArcMap is a powerful tool for delineating and organizing information data in river basins where databases are not available. The drainage area calculated for the Santa River Basin was km2 with a length of streams of km. Likewise, the density of drainage is 0.26 / km. The delineated watersheds were Santa-Outlet, Tablacacha, and Anta; The sub watersheds Tablacacha and Anta are the main source of water resources in the basin, whose annual precipitation estimated were 568 mm and 593 mm respectively. Based on the analysis of discharge, we conclude that for a 75 % of persistence, the annual mean flow will be 110 m3/s
