Quality Assessment in River Network Generalisation by Preserving the Drainage Pattern
The drainage pattern of a river network is the arrangement in which a stream erodes the channels of its network of tributaries. It can reflect the geographical characteristics of a river network to a certain extent, because it depends on the topography and geology of the land. Whether in cartography or GIS, hydrography is one of the most important feature classes to generalise in order to produ...
متن کاملDrainage tree construction based on patterns in a riv- er network
In this paper, the river network is divided into sub-networks forming a hierarchy of drainage systems following the Horton order. Then, drainage systems are rearranged based on their pattern to obtain more homogeneous drainage systems which do not necessarily follow the Horton order. Such reorganization facilitates the description of the network system. Such organization can be useful for terra...
متن کاملEvaluation of Hydraulic Sensitivity Indicators for Baffle Modules (Case Study: Varamin Irrigation and Drainage Network)
Measuring sensitivity of hydraulic structures is considered as an approach for evaluation of water projects performance, due to lower distribution efficiency in Irrigation and Drainage project schemes. Sensitivity analysis approach for irrigation structures is one of flow analysis methods which are developed in recent years in order to measure the behavior of flow in hydraulic structures in an ...
متن کاملComparison Density and Fractal Dimension of Drainage Networks in Different Scales and Precision Different (Case Study: Ilam Watersheds)
Every phenomena in the nature, despite the complexity of the subject, has certain rules and regulations. River pattern and behavior as one of the most complex natural phenomena to this is not an exception. Depending on geomorphologic, climatic, topographic and erosive conditions, the waterways exhibit different patterns and behaviors. One of the parameters which can be achieved using the comple...
متن کاملGeomorphometric Analysis of Maroon River by Digital Elevation Model
Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) are used to estimate different morphologies, analysis of river profile, delineating drainage basin and drainage pattern associated with lithological and structural changes. The study area is Maroon River located in Khuzestan Province, Iran. In this study geomorphometric analysis based on DEM carried out to understand Maroon river uplift rate and tectonic- erosion...
