1 George Mason University Department of Civil, Environmental and Infrastructure Engineering Dr. Celso Ferreira Prepared by Lora Baumgartner Exercise Topic: Getting started with HEC GeoRAS Objective: Create a HEC-RAS model of the George Mason University watershed using the GeoRAS toolbar in ArcMap. **Refer to the HEC-GeoRAS User Manual for definitions and context of the steps and tools in this tutorial, found in the Help Menu of the GeoRAS toolbar.** Tutorial DEM obtained from GMU Campus Lidar file (provided) Versions used for this tutorial: HEC-GeoRAS 10.1, ArcMap (Student), ArcCatalog , HEC-RAS
2 Create New Project 1. Open a blank project. Add the GMU LIDAR DEM and a basemap for visual reference. Under the Customize > Toolbars menu, enable the HEC-GeoRAS toolbar. *Save the new project before moving to layer creation. 2. In the GeoRas toolbar, select All from the RAS Geometry > Create RAS Layers drop-down menu. 2
3 3. Note the auto-generated names that are assigned to each layer. *It is recommended that the user does not change the autogenerated names for this exercise. While names may be customized, this action will add additional work in later steps. 4. Click OK. 3
4 Draw Reaches and Assign Attributes 1. Zoom in on the DEM layer to a scale that allows for visual inspection of the stream beds. *A scale of 1:400 was used for the sample pictures at right. 2. Right-click on the River layer in the table of contents. Select Start Editing from the Edit Features menu. 4
5 3. Locate the Create Feature window, usually opened to the right of the screen. To open it manually, click the associated icon on the Editor toolbar. *If the window does not appear, try closing other windows in the right sidebar which may be covering the Create Feature window. 4. Select the River Layer. 5. Select the Line drawing tool. 5
6 6. Click once at the upstream end of the left (west) reach of the GMU stream system. Continue clicking once at points along the reach. *For simplicity, the reaches are started at the point downstream of Mason Pond outflow culvert (west reach) and Sandy Creek Way (east reach). 7. To move the map during drawing, click on the hand icon. Drag the map to expose the next section of the reach. 6
7 8. Re-select the River layer in the Create Feature (drawing) window. 9. Re-select the Line drawing tool in the Create Feature window. 10. Continue drawing the stream bed until reaching the junction of the east and west GMU reaches. Double click to finish the drawing. 7
8 11. Select Save Edits and Stop Editing from the Editor dropdown menu. 12. Select the River ID icon from the GeoRAS toolbar. Click on the newly-drawn reach. 13. Enter the preferred River and Reach names. 14. Click OK. 15. Repeat steps 2 through 14 to draw and name the right-hand (east) and bottom (south) reaches. *To auto-connect the ends of each reach as they are drawn, enable the Snapping toolbar from the Customize > Toolbars menu. Select the End Snapping icon. 8
9 16. Select Layer Setup from the RAS Geometry drop-down menu. 17. From the Required Surface tab, select GRID and then 18. Select the GMU LIDAR DEM from the Terrain drop-down menu. 19. Click OK. 20. Select Topology from the RAS Geometry > Stream Centerline Attributes menu. 21. Click OK. 9
10 22. Select Lengths/Stations from the RAS Geometry > Stream Centerline Attributes menu. 23. Click OK. 10
11 Draw Banks and Assign Attributes Prep: Start editing on the Banks layer. 1. Start with the left bank, from the perspective of looking in the downstream direction. Click once to start the bank line. Follow the estimated line of the bank as shown by the DEM. 2. Double-click to end the bank line as close to the end of the river reach line as possible. 11
12 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to draw the right bank of the same reach. 4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 to draw the banks for the west and south river reaches. Save edits and stop editing. 12
13 Create Flowpaths 1. Select Flow Path Centerlines from the RAS Geometry > Create RAS Layers menu. 2. Click Yes to assign the stream centerline. 3. Check auto-generated layer names and click OK. 4. Click OK. 5. Start editing the Flowpaths layer. 13
14 6. Click to start the left flowpath of the first river reach. Continue drawing the flowpath by following the general shape of the stream centerline (River). 7. Double-click to end the left flowpath line. 8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 to draw the flowpaths for the east and south river reaches. Save edits and stop editing. 14
15 9. Select the Assign Flowpath icon on the HEC-GeoRAS toolbar. Click on the left flowpath of one of the reaches, from the perspective of looking in the downstream direction. 10. Select Left from the Line Type drop-down menu. 11. Click OK. 12. Click on the right flowpath of the same river reach. Select Right from the Line Type drop-down menu. 13. Click OK. 15
16 Draw Cross Section Lines and Assign Attributes Prep: Start Editing on the XSCutLines layer. 1. *Working from left to right, from the perspective of looking downstream*, draw a cross section cut line which extends to across the estimated floodplain. *The cut line should intersect the Stream Centerline (River) at a 90 degree angle. 2. Continuing to work from left bank to right bank, create approximately 15 cut lines that indicate the general curves of the river reach. *Cut lines cannot overlap. Multiple clicks can be used to allow both perpendicular crossing of the river and coverage of the floodplain. *For simplicity, do not create a cut line on a bridge, culvert, or other structure along the reach. 16
17 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the remaining river reaches. *Cross sections may not cross each other. See insert for detail. *A cross section may not intersect the flowpath line(s) of more than one reach. *Note special cross sections in preparation for bridge geometry. This is required for HEC-RAS. 17
18 4. Select All from the RAS Geometry > XS Cut Line Attributes menu. 5. Confirm that the auto-filled layers are correct and click OK. 6. Click OK. 18
19 7. Check a sample cross section by clicking on the Plot Cross Section icon on the Editor toolbar. Click on a cut line and observe the graph of the cross section. 19
20 Convert NLDC to Temporary N Values; Convert to Polygon Feature 1. In the File > Add Data menu, select the National Land Cover Database.tif file provided. 2. Click Add. 3.
