• Opis:
  The extraction of drainage network and watershed information is prerequisite for the study of watershed characteristics like morphometric analysis, which provides a basis for hydrological planning and modeling. The advanced tools of algorithms, Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data and Geographical Information System (GIS) software are used to extract drainage networks and their watershed boundaries. These tools are complicated to use or produce more errors in the extraction of elevation and drainage networks when applied to flat areas. For removal of errors and to improve the accuracy in preparation of DEM and extraction of drainage network, Burada Kalava River Basin, Andhra Pradesh, India has been taken for application of accuracy improvement algorithms. An automatic generation of drainage network and watershed using digital elevation model results in positional errors due to variations in slope and topography. This study aimed to generate a catchment area and stream network that closely represent the natural stream network and the streams’ real positions. The step-by-step methodology using GRASS-interfaced Quantum GIS algorithms are given for pre-processing of DEM data to improve the positional accuracy before automatic extraction of the stream network and catchment area to resemble the real situation of the watershed. Secondly, efforts are made to analyze the DEM during automatic generation of the stream network and catchment area by assigning various area threshold values, including the application of pour point coordinates in improving the stream network and watershed characteristics. The results are verified and validated with the field information in order to improve the accuracy levels of DEM quality in generation of drainage network and catchment area.
