Colorado River Network 1:100,000 scale Developed from EPA River Reach File 3 (the predecessor of the NHD)
City of Austin Stream Network Developed from 1”=100’ Capco Areal photogrammetry 1:1200 scale
Stream Definition: Waller Creek Austin Watersheds with Streamsderived from Aerial Photographs Streamlines generated by the aerial photographs are not always continuous.
Information for Correcting Stream Network • DEM • Contours • Storm sewers • Orthophotos
Resulting Corrected Stream • Subsequent steps: • Verification of corrected streams by flood hydrologists. • Running “tracer” program to connect arcs. • Burning of streams into DEM.

HEC-RAS: Background • River Analysis System model of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers • Input = cross-section geometry and flow rates • Output = flood water elevations Cross-Section Schematic
Waller Creek Watersheds Network Channel
HEC-RAS: Cross-Section Description • Points describe channel and floodway geometry • Bank station locations • Water surface elevations and floodplain boundaries
