This edited collection deals with the international issue of conserving and allocating water as the world's population continues to grow dramatically. Hydrologic and Hydraulic Modeling Support with Geographic Information Systems discusses applications such as watershed delineation, topographic characteristic extraction, and floodplain extent determination and provides an informed basis for water resource professionals to make sound decisions.

5.0 out of 5 stars
The future of H&H Modeling,
By Michael Carter Jr (Bedford, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hydrologic and Hydraulic Modeling Support with Geographic Information Systems (Paperback)
This book provides an overview of not only the theory and computational methodologies of both Hydraulic and Hydrologic modeling in ArcView, but provides real world modeling examples. This publication is a great quick overview of cutting edge modeling. Note that most of the Corp of Engineering extensions show cased in this book require that you are using ArcView 3.x and they currently do not run on ArcGIS 8.
