Abstract

Hydrologic Modeling to Support the Safety of Dams for the Bureau of In
Track: Tribal/Indigenous GIS Programs
Authors: Shane Willard, Jackie Contreras

We will speak on the use of hydrologic and hydraulic analysis to delineate watersheds and sub-basins to support dam safety in tribal communities. Specifically, how the hydrologic (upstream) analysis is critical for the hydraulic (downstream) modeling. This will provide first responders with better tools depicting flooding scenarios to facilitate an emergency action plan and promote dam safety.
