Abstract

Building Analytical Applications Using NHDPlusV2
Track: Water Resources
Authors: Alan Rea, L. McKay, Tommy Dewald

The three basic components of NHDPlusV2 -the reach network, navigation attributes, and reach catchments- are designed to support sophisticated surface water network analysis. Attendees will learn how NHDPlusV2 is used to (1) move around the network, (2) inter-relate information located on the network, (3) compute characteristics for reach catchments and drainage areas, (4) use catchments for linear referencing, and (5) aggregate NHDPlusV2 attributes to other geometries such as hydrologic units.
