Paper
WAM Enhancements within the ArcGIS 9.2 Environment
Track: Water Resources
Author(s): Barry Jacobson, Del Bottcher, Jeffrey Hiscock

The Watershed Assessment Model (WAM) is a comprehensive GIS-based program that has been used extensively for numerous large- and small-scale hydrologic and water quality evaluations including TMDLs. WAM is currently being migrated from ArcView 3.2 to the ArcGIS 9.2 and Arc Hydro database environments. The presentation will summarize the functionality of WAM as well as highlight the new user interface and Arc Hydro features that will significantly improve initial model set up, scenario testing, and output analysis and presentation. Inclusion of the Arc Hydro data schema will provide direct database compatibility with a number of water resources agencies across the country.
