Modeling Small Watersheds With Three Core Hydrology Methods
Built for soil and water district technicians and junior engineers, this course teaches how to model small watersheds for conservation and stormwater management structures using three established approaches: EFH2, TR-20/TR-55, and the rational method. It blends GIS workflows, covered in parallel for both ArcGIS with the Spatial Analyst extension and QGIS, with traditional by-hand analysis, using EFH2 software for rural sites and the HydroCAD Free Sampler edition for urban projects.
Who it's for
Soil and water district technicians and junior engineers who need practical, applicable hydrology modeling skills.
Key takeaways
- Understand and apply the EFH2, TR-20/TR-55, and rational method models
- Run parallel GIS workflows in either ArcGIS or QGIS
- Work through two complete design examples that tie the methods together
About this course
This course teaches soil and water district technicians and junior engineers how to model small watersheds for conservation and stormwater management structures. Three hydrological models are presented: EFH2, TR-20/TR-55, and the rational method. The course includes a blend of GIS and by-hand analysis methods. For the GIS portions, parallel workflows are presented for ArcGIS (Spatial Analyst extension), and for QGIS. The EFH2 software is presented for rural hydrology while HydroCAD (Free Sampler edition) is used for urban projects. The course culminates in two design examples to allow students to implement what they've learned.
Price
This course is free to enrol.
