  6. GIS in Water Resources: Lecture 1 • In-class and distance learning • Geospatial database of hydrologic features • GIS and HIS • Curved earth and a flat map
  7. Geographic Data Model • Conceptual Model – a set of concepts that describe a subject and allow reasoning about it • Mathematical Model – a conceptual model expressed in symbols and equations • Data Model – a conceptual model expressed in a data structure (e.g. ascii files, Excel tables, …..) • Geographic Data Model – a conceptual model for describing and reasoning about the world expressed in a GIS database
  8. Data Model based on Inventory of data layers
  9. Spatial Data: Vector format Vector data are defined spatially: (x1,y1) Point - a pair of x and y coordinates vertex Line - a sequence of points Node Polygon - a closed set of lines
  10. Themes or Data Layers Vector data: point, line or polygon features
  11. Kissimmee watershed, Florida Themes
  12. Attributes of a Selected Feature
  13. Raster and Vector Data Raster data are described by a cell grid, one value per cell Vector Raster Point Line Zone of cells Polygon

  21. What is CUAHSI? UCAR • CUAHSI –Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science, Inc • Formed in 2001 as a legal entity • Program office in Washington (5 staff) • NSF supports CUAHSI to develop infrastructure and services to advance hydrologic science in US universities Unidata Atmospheric Sciences Earth Sciences Ocean Sciences CUAHSI National Science Foundation Geosciences Directorate HIS
  22. CUAHSI Member Institutions 122 Universities as of August 2009
  23. Hydrologic Information System Goals • Data Access– providing better access to a large volume of high quality hydrologic data; • Hydrologic Observatories– storing and synthesizing hydrologic data for a region; • Hydrologic Science– providing a stronger hydrologic information infrastructure; • Hydrologic Education– bringing more hydrologic data into the classroom.
  24. Water Data Water quantity and quality Soil water Rainfall & Snow Modeling Meteorology Remote sensing
  25. Data are Published in Many Formats
  26. Services-Oriented Architecture A services‐oriented architecture is a concept that applies to large, distributed information systems that have many owners, are complex and heterogeneous, and have considerable legacies from the way their various components have developed in the past (Josuttis, 2007).

  42. Map Projection Flat Map Cartesian coordinates: x,y (Easting & Northing) Curved Earth Geographic coordinates: f, l (Latitude & Longitude)
  43. Representative Fraction Globe distanceEarth distance = Earth to Globe to Map Map Projection: Map Scale: Scale Factor Map distanceGlobe distance = (e.g. 0.9996) (e.g. 1:24,000)
  44. Coordinate Systems A planar coordinate system is defined by a pair of orthogonal (x,y) axes drawn through an origin Y X Origin (xo,yo) (fo,lo)
  45. Summary (1) • GIS in Water Resources is about empowerment through use of information technology – helping you to understand the world around you and to investigate problems of interest to you • This is an “open class” in every sense where we learn from one another as well as from the instructors
  46. Summary (2) • GIS offers a structured information model for working with geospatial data that describe the “water environment” (watersheds, streams, lakes, land use, ….) • Water resources also needs observations and modeling to describe “the water” (discharge, water quality, water level, precipitation)
  47. Summary (3) • Geography “brings things together” through georeferencing on the earth’s surface • Understanding geolocation on the earth and working with geospatial coordinate systems is fundamental to this field
