Abstract

The main objective of this study is to develop a new modeling platform, which integrates all necessary modeling components for watershed simulation, including a pre-processing tool, a coupling of hydrologic and river transport models, and a calibration and uncertainty analysis tool. All components are connected and immersed into an open source non-proprietary GIS software. The modeling platform is programmed in Microsoft Visual Studio (VB.Net), and equipped with a built-in GUI facility. A minimum data input requirement, full capabilities and potential applicability are most compelling of this modeling platform. The modeling platform was applied to different watersheds under distinguished weather conditions; the simulation results show not only a good agreement with the observation data, but also some improvements in comparison with the results obtained from other prevalent hydrologic models.
