2 Outline o Watershed delineation o Sinks, flat areas, flow direction, delineation etc. o Dam Construction o Visualization and Calculation of Storage and Catchment o Parameters regarding dam and field usage o Demo. of tool

3 Introduction o What is GIS? o GRAM++: o GIS package developed by CSRE, IIT Bombay. o Software with modules of Map editing, Raster analysis, Terrain Modeling, Watershed delineation. o Objectives of project.

4 Watershed o Total area of water flowing towards an outlet point (Pour point). o Water flows in the direction of the terrain steepest downhill slope. Streamlines (blue arrows) are orthogonal to the contour lines. o Drainage line (red line) are found along the highest points of the terrain.

5 DEM o Digital Elevation Models (DEM) are grids of elevation. o Contour maps are converted to digital contour files and elevation values are interpolated from irregularly spaced points to regular grid points. o Watershed delineation can be based on DEMs rather than contour lines.

6 Digitizing the Map o Map models: o Raster Model o Tin Model o Methods of digitizing: o Digitizing through spot heights o Digitizing through contour maps/toposheets o Input map for our tool is in the form of raster grid, with each cell value being elevation above mean sea level.

7 Watershed Delineation o o o o o o Removing sink: Sink or depression is a cell or a group of cell which is at a lower elevation than all its neighboring cells. Convert sink to flat area by increasing the height of sink to minimum height of neighbor. Remove flat areas: A cell is said to be part of a flat area, if all of its neighbors have the same elevation as itself, or a higher elevation. Each cell identified as being part of a flat area is incremented by a small increment

8 Watershed Delineation o Flow Directions: o The eight-direction pour point algorithm (D-8) assigns a flow direction code to each cell, based on the steepest downhill slope as defined by the DEM. o The flow direction code indicates the cell towards which the water flows. Flow direction codes o Flow direction is calculated by comparing the distance weighted drop of neighboring cells.

9 Watershed Delineation o Flow Accumulation: o Flow accumulation is a measure of the drainage area in units of grid cells. o The flow accumulation value of a cell is the sum of the flow accumulation values of the neighboring cells and the number of neighboring cells which flow into it Transforms to

10 Watershed Delineation o Apply Threshold: Threshold is given to find out all pixels having a flow accumulation value above a certain value. The value is supplied by the user and the flow of water in drainage is calculated on the basis of this threshold. o Pour Point. o Watershed delineation around the drainage.

11 Dam Construction/Visualization o End point is selected by the user and a line is drawn between these end points to give a view. o Various parameters given by user: o Aspect Ratio o Width of top of dam o Height of dam( < Maximum height) o Foundation depth o The elevation of each point is increased and the resultant DEM is stored as a raster image.

12 Storage Calculation o Find all those cells that will be covered by water after dam construction. o A 2-D array corresponding to the cells of DEM with each cell having a value from -1,0,1,2. o Value assigning scheme: -1 = end cells of image. 0 = Cell that is not in storage area. 1 = cell currently processing 2 = cell in the storage area.

13 Storage Calculation o Initially assign all cells except border cells a value 0. o Start with a single cell in area and recursively go on visiting all those neighbor cells which are connected to this cell and are at height lesser than dam height. o Give all the visited neighbor a value 2 and color these neighbors, showing the storage.

14 Storage Visualization Raster Map of Gudwan area Before Dam construction Storage with Dam

15 Storage Visualization Data Collection Limitation: Null Values for unknown points giving a low value outside the considered area.

16 Catchment Visualization o Catchment is defined as area through which inflow of water occurs into the dam. o The inflow will be towards a cell if neighboring cell have FD value as in figure:

17 Catchment Visualization o Assign a 2-D array corresponding to the cells of DEM as values: -1 = Border cells of image. 0 = The cell that is not in catchment area 1 = Currently processing cell 2 = cell in catchment area 3 = cell in storage area 4 = cell with dam constructed o All those cell whose inflow is towards any of storage cell ( excluding the dam cells) will contribute towards the catchment area.

18 Dam Calculations o Volume Calculation: o Consider the cross section of dam as above figure

19 Dam Calculations o Volume Calculation: o Cross section area is: W( H + f ) + B( H + 2f ) Where: W = width of top of dam H = Elevation of dam above mean sea level Elevation of cell before dam. f = foundation depth B = base of dam = (H / AS) AS = Aspect ratio H = Maximum height of dam from the ground o Length of dam can be calculated by using end points and scale factor for dam.

20 Dam Calculations o Volume Calculation: o The volume contribution of each cell for dam: o V c = Length/ (number of cells) o Therefore volume is given as: V = sum( W ( H i + f ) + (H /AS)( H i + 2f) )V c Where H i = height difference of each cell

21 Dam Calculations o Surface Area Calculation: o The perimeter of cross-section is given as: PM = W + 2(slant height) Where, slant height is the length of inclined surface of dam. o SA = sum( W + 2( Slant height of each cell) )V c o For both, the volume and the surface area the scale factor can be found from the header information of raster image.

22 Dam Calculations o Spill Height: o Requirements o Flow rate at the bottom of dam o Velocity of water at bottom of dam o Dam inflow rate ( Maximum volume of incoming water at peak rainfall ) o Number of spill ways o Taking the incoming water flow rate as V max = (n.h.d( v 2 2.g.D) 1/2 )

23 DEMO o Some of the visual Images After dam construction:

24 Error Possibilities o The exact contribution of each pixel can t be found which may lead to some errors. o Variation of Scale factor. o Number of cells with increased heights. o Error in volume and surface area calculation.

25 Field Work o During the course of this project we have analyzed the work of construction of check dam in the areas of Gudwanwadi and Belachiwadi of Karjat area. o The severe water storage problem of Karjat Taluka of Raigad district. o The detailed description for the dam construction can be found at:

26 Conclusion o With the help of this visual tool a rough estimate of water storage and various parameters of dam can be found. o Future Scope: Automatic location of optimal dam site for a given map.
