Presentation Transcript

  1. Spatial approach in Rwanda's Common Framework of Engagement Rwanda base image (Hydrosheds version of the SRTM DEM). The background is a false-color Landsat mosaic from 2000. The area of Rwanda is 26,798 km2, but hydrological modeling requires that all of the land surface that drains into Rwanda, as indicated by the blue line, be included. http://gis.ess.washington.edu/areas/Rwanda/

  2. Dynamic Information Framework (DIF) (Transboundary) Political Boundaries ….. a practical engine, for organizing and processing multi-source information and decision needs - an “information laboratory and forum” - towards a readily accessible Decision Support Framework Landuse/Landcover Physical “Template”

  3. Daily/Seasonal Model of Surface Climate Precip, Temp, Rn, W “Models” Movement of water, energy Seasonal/(Inter)Annual Model of Vegetation & Biodiversity Types, Attributes (“physiology”) Model of Soils Depth-n, types/attributes) Decades/Centuries Model of Elevations Topography, Mask, River Networks Geological Express as a geospatially-explicit/process-based (set of) models TIME SCALE

  4. Hydrosheds SRTM 3" (~90m) DEM Rwanda elevations run from 914m to 4457m (in GIS) on Mt Karisimbi.

  5. FAO world soil suborder data

  6. MODIS satellite land cover

  7. TRMM rainfall quarter-degree grid at daily (actually 3-hour) intervals
