Catchments (terminology)
UK USCatchment or Watersheddrainage basinWatershed Drainage divide
Drainage basin:An extent or an area of land where surface water from rain, melting snow, or ice converges to a single point at a lower elevation, usually the exit of the basin, where the waters join another waterbody , such as a river, lake, reservoir, estuary, wetland, sea, or ocean

Reproject DEM
• Global datasets are usually in EPSG:4326(Geographic Coordinate System, Lat/Lon)
• For correct calculation of DEM derivatives, the DEM should be reprojected to a Coordinate Reference System

Calculation of slope
25
Moving Window or Kernel (3 x 3)
x
slope = arctan(Δz/ Δx)z
In a grid slope is calculated as a focal operation. The steepest slope in the window is assigned to the cell

Subset DEM
• DEM too large: calculation times for the following steps can become too large or computer runs out of memory
• DEM too small: catchment boundaries are cut off
26
![Page 27: Dem analaysis and catchment delineation using GIS](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051122/58792d421a28ab7c448b5c75/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Interpolate voids
• Voids are pixels with NODATA in your DEM as a result of the acquisition procedure
• Voids can be interpolated using the values of surrounding cells

Fill sinks
• DEM creation results in artificial pits in the landscape
• A pit is a set of one or more cells which has no downstream cells around it
• Pits are removed using the fill sinks function in GIS software
• If landscape contains real sinks (e.g. lakes), these need to be added after pit removal

Burn-in the stream network
• When a river network layer exists it can be used to force the flow direction algorithm to follow the river network

Burn-in streams: method 1
1. Create a standardized DEM with standardized values in the range [0,1]
2. For the cells in the river network subtract the value 1, this will shift those cells to the range [-1,0]
• This procedure will maintain the lowest neighbour relation between cells except for those cells where one neighbour is in the river network and the other one is not.

Calculate flow direction
• D8 algorithm: uses 8 discrete directions to calculate flow direction (0, 45, 90, 135, 180, 225, 270, 315 degrees) to steepest cells downwards
• Dinf algorithm: uses continuous directions
