  1. Flood Forecast Mapping in AHPSOctober 28, 2003

  2. Outline • Definition • Requirements • Processing Tasks • One-time • Routine • Test Area • Presentation Methods • What next?

  3. Definition • Provide areal extent of flooding referenced against well-understood markings (streets, structures, landmarks) for water elevation forecasts • At multiple locations along river reach

  4. Requirements • Water Surface Profile • FLDWAV, SHRT, other • DEM Data • Processing Tools • Presentation Methods

  5. Requirements • Water surface profile • NWS FLDWAV • Data collection • Calibration • Verification • Routine generation • deterministic • probabilistic

  6. Requirements • Digital Elevation Data • High-resolution most effective • Reference Overlays • Orthophoto (geo-referenced images) • USGS Quad Sheets • TIGER Data • Utility Plans

  7. Requirements • Processing Tools • Process static data • Create ground grid • Process dynamic data • Create water surface grid • FLDVIEW • Arcview based

  30. Status • Single location • Lewistown on Juniata River • Daily Background processing • After routine operations • Cron initiated • FLDWAV on Linux • FLDVIEW on HP WS

  31. Stats • Space Requirements • On AWIPS, Lewistown - ~1 GB • On FLDIMS - ??? • FLDWAV performance - Linux • Deterministic, entire Susq. – few seconds • Probabilistic, 7 day PQPF – 35+ seconds • Probabilistic, 30 day - ~ 3 minutes

  32. Stats (cont’d) • FLDVIEW performance – HP WS • Fully automated • 7+ minutes deterministic (one layer) • 35+ minutes, 5 layer probabilistic (5 layers) • FLDVIEW performance – P3, 1 GHz, 512 MB • ~1’ 10” per layer

  33. Stats (cont’d) • Automated process • Within Linux scripts • OFS, PQPF, ESPADP, FLDVIEW, FTP • MARFC-developed queuing system • MARFC-developed auto-X-Display • Expect-based FTP transfer of modified shapefiles

  34. What next? • Sequencing • From peak value to 6 hour values • Animation? • New location • Coding and structure changes • Other Susq. FLDWAV calibrated reach • OHD prepared • Resources and methodology for entirely new location • Data, software, code, training, documentation • In-house vs. AHPS funded

  35. What next? (cont’d) • Simplified Hydraulic Routing Technique (SHRT) • Mapping for locations without backwater, without junctions • NWS Policy • Products • Water surface profiles, shapefiles, images, internet mapping services • Official communications methods • PC-based FLDVIEW execution • Currently coded for either HP-UX or PC

  36. What next? (cont’d) • Internet map service selection • User feedback • Design • Performance • User-friendliness
