Abstract


Paper
Embedding GIS Technology in a Watershed Modeling Application with ArcObjects
Track: Water Resources
Author(s): Douglas Gallup, Jim Nelson

The increasing importance of GIS data in water resources engineering requires today's engineers to have access to and be able to process this data in analysis and computer modeling. Through the use of Esri's ArcObjects technology, GIS tools and data sets are being integrated into the Watershed Modeling System (WMS) developed by the Environmental Modeling Research Laboratory at BYU. Using ArcObjects with this software, engineers will be able to exchange GIS maps and their associated databases in any format supported by ArcView 8.x in the analysis of watershedsand surface water and groundwater models.
