Modeling Surface Water
Center of Excellence for Geospatial Information Science (CEGIS)
Modeling hydrology is the use of computers to simulate the behavior of water on earth.
Hydrologic modeling has been employed for a long time for things like predicting the risk of floods given a certain amount of rain or how building structures like bridges might impact stream flow.
Research is underway to adapt modeling tools for use in mapping streams.

Validation of elevation-derived channels
We are developing methods for autonomous validation of elevation-derived hydrographic features using remote sensing data to update the NHD.
