Evaluating 1 and 2D Dimensional Models for Floodplain Inundation Mapping
Abstract
The aim of this project is to undertake a feasibility study into the potential utility of integrating high resolution two dimensional finite element flow models and Geographical Information Systems technology. The initial phase of this research concerns the construction of an operational high resolution flow model for a 60km reach of the Missouri River between Gavins Point Dam and Maskell gauging station. Specifically, the contract seeks to produce a CRREL report and to assess data needs for 2D FE models for river flow inundation. This report contains a brief review of progress on this work unit during months 3-6 of the research contact.
