To model infiltration loss within 2D domain for a Rain-on-Grid (RoG) HEC-RAS model, a land cover layer and a soils layer needs to be generated first and then an infiltration…
In HEC-RAS 6.0, users have the option to import either raster landcover files or vector landcover files to create a land cover layer which will then be used to associate…
This post (3 of 3) is an instruction of combining Land Cover Raster file and HSG Raster file to create a CN raster file for calculating an area-weighted average CN…
Hydrologic Soil Group Data (A, B, C, and D) is an important soil property which impacts the soil infiltration rates and runoff potential. Soils were originally assigned to hydrologic soil…
