USGS Perspective on
The Ele-Hydro Concept
Adapted from a presentation by Jeff SimleyUSGS National Hydrography Data Manager
Erosion and Resistance
Integration and registration
Contours integrated with Hydro
Heads-up Digitizing

How we think and collect now. . .
Elevation
Separate funding mechanisms $$$Indiana LiDAR $3.3millionIndiana Hydro $2.6million
Data housed separately (raster vs vector)
Separate data standards
Managed separately
Separate collection methods

How we think now -Some integration

Forcing integration by “burning” the Hydro data into the Elevation data

Packaging the Data
Derive hydrography from the terrain
Indiana’s Local-Resolution NHD streams and lidar DEM
Integration – What does it mean?
1) Alignment of elevation and hydrography such that streams flow in channels
2) Interoperability such that a levee can be connected to a river
3) Data Model that links elements and features4) Synthesis such that streamflow can be estimated5) Derivatives such that gradient, channel dimensions, etc.
can be calculated6) Program where a DEM and Hydro can be jointly produced
and funded7) Synchronization so that data are temporally coincident8) Product in a way that both elevation and hydro can be
packaged together9) Delivery of data to be accessed in unison
Integration – Why?
1) Reduce cost2) Provide improved credibility3) Produce accurate data4) Increase the value of the data5) Empower science-based decisions6) Challenge and drive research
An Integrated Landscape
“All geospatial software is moving to 3D. It is now an expectation.”
