Streamflow Prediction









1)Selection of existing rainfall and streamflow gaging station in Florida
2)30 mile buffer around the prediction point for identifying streamflow gauging stations in the vicinity in the same or nearby watershed
3)8 streamflow gauging stations selected in the nearby areas for the daily streamflow forecasting at a given location.
4)Identification of second location for streamflow prediction
5)Buffer for the location 2
6)Best gaging stations obtained for the location 2 by the process of optimization
7)Spatial Interpolation: Prediction of the missing streamflow values using Spatial interpolation (IDW) in ArcGIS. The results were validated using test data (red star marked on the map).

Week 10: HomeLand Security: Protect

Deliverable 4: 3-D Line of Sight Polylines in ArcScene, revealing how terrian relief obstructs the range of view from that designated surveillance position. The extend of line of sight polylines over the surface is shown here.
Deliverable3: Al map showing series of observation points where surveillance camera can be deployed to oversee the operations and activites before, during and after an event. Also, a line of sight profile graph of the represenatitve observation point is shown. The profile graph provides a perspective of line of sight as if one is observing it from the ground. It provides a better look at where the view may be claer or obstructed.



Deliverable2: These are secure ingress and egress routes around Alta Bates Medical Center (a critical infrastructure). The red points (position) on the map are the optimal locations for increased security to monitor ingress and egress to the hospital sites.

Deliverable 1: A map showing buffer zone surrounding each of the hospitals within the larger buffer zone.
