Technical Reference Manual

Overview

The FLO-2D Plugin for QGIS is a tool to develop, format, analyze, and display data used by the FLO-2D Flood Model. The Plugin can import project data, generate data and export appropriately formatted FLO-2D data input files for a FLO-2D Project. This reference manual describes the assumptions, functions, and processes applied in the QGIS Plugin. A companion manual, the FLO-2D QGIS Plugin User’s Manual, describes the workflow, outlines the data structure and presents tutorials for the Plugin. It does not address the functionality and use of the FLO-2D model which has a separate set of reference manuals.

Data File Structure

The FLO-2D QGIS Plugin uses native QGIS layers to display FLO-2D project data. Several aspects of the Plugin file structure are fundamental to understanding project data organization and workflows.

GeoPackage File

All FLO-2D project data is stored in an SQLite database conforming to the GeoPackage specification. The GeoPackage specification is a product of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and stores spatial data in a non-proprietary database format. For the FLO2D QGIS Plugin, the GeoPackage file is a *.gpkg file. This file is the central repository for project metadata, spatial information, data layers, and attributes. The Plugin generates and requires a single GeoPackage file for each project.

The GeoPackage file can be perused manually using any compatible SQLite database viewer. Manual editing of the file, however, is not recommended and manual review of the file is not required for the use of the Plugin. Plugin tools process and store data within the project GeoPackage. FLO-2D uses *.dat or *.hdf5 files. These files are exported from the *.gpkg database. Figure 1 shows the layout of the layers and tables in QGIS that are used by the FLO-2D Plugin.

Figure 1. Overview of the QGIS Layout and Layer Structure.

Project Metadata

Non-spatial project metadata, such as data in the CONT.DAT and TOLER.DAT files, as well as the project spatial reference, are stored in tables within the project GeoPackage file. While the project spatial reference is not a spatial dataset, the spatial project data within the GeoPackage file is sensitive to the reference coordinate projection and changes to the selected spatial projection will require regeneration of the project GeoPackage.

Project Spatial Data

Project spatial data is stored within the project GeoPackage file. All input datasets are assumed to have the same spatial coordinate reference system (CRS) as assigned to the FLO-2D project. Datasets in other spatial reference systems should first be projected into the FLO-2D project spatial reference system before attempting to use any of the FLO-2D QGIS Plugin tools.

FLO-2D Plugin

Python Plugin

The FLO-2D Plugin is built with python code. The code is open source and available for any programmer to review or edit. The code is stored in the flo2d directory of the qgis/python/plugins folder (Figure 2).

Figure 2. Plugin Folder.

The code can be viewed, queried and edited with any text editor including UltraEdit, Notepad++ or Textpad. The files include the following:

• *.png – icon files

• *.py – python code files

• *.qml – QGIS layer styles

• *.svg – icon files

• *.sql – SQL code relational database information

• *.ui – QT Creator window editor

The plugin is organized into utility-based directories for plugin files that perform specific functions. For example, there is a folder for the toolbar and one for the sidebar widgets.

The plugin code is built with Pycharm, and Eclipse. The python formatting module Black is used to format the code. Additional python modules are required for some processing purposes. Numpy, H5PY, HDF5, DASK, and DASK Distributed modules may be installed with the OSGEO4W network installer. This method is more complicated than the stand-alone installer but allows for build updates, and multiple versions. It may be necessary to get IT Admin support to add python modules to the QGIS version of Python.

Plugin Processes

The Plugin builds a GeoPackage file. It is generated by running the FLO-2D Plugin Settings Tool. The GeoPackage contains data to define the layers and tables, create layer styles and views. The Plugin includes all the tools to digitize, import, view, edit and export FLO-2D project data. The processes include:

• Import/export tools

• Elevation interpolation and adjustment tools

• Levee calculation

• Sampling spatial data

• Schematization

• Rainfall interpolation

• Infiltration interpolation

• Storm drain import, export, digitize

• Storm drain SWMM.inp development tools

• Channel development tools

• Sediment transport and mudflow development tools

• HAZUS development tools

Grid System

The grid system is defined by using the extent of the Computational Domain to generate a grid system boundary. The code generates a bounding box using the x (max, min), and y (max, min) of the computational domain polygon. The bounding box aligned to the upper and lower left extent of the computational domain polygon. The cells of the grid are individual polygons ordered by row and column. Only polygons that intersect the Computation Domain layer are created. The default numbering system is in order of row and then column (Figure 3).

Figure 3. Grid Numbering Scheme.

The Number Units and Coordinate Reference System (CRS) are established when the project GeoPackage is developed using the FLO-2D Plugin Settings Tool. The grid alignment is generally set to the extent of the computational domain, but it can be aligned to the raster as well as shown in Figure 4.

Figure 4. Grid Element Alignment.

Elevation from Raster

The Elevation from Raster calculator uses the alignment and cell size of the grid system to set the origin and raster resolution of the Warp tool. The Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL) Warp tool is used by the FLO-2D Plugin to generate a temporary elevation file based on one of twelve sampling methods: Near, bilinear, cubic, cubic spline, Lanczos, average, mode, max, min, med, q1 and q3 (Figure 5). The warp is an area weighted calculation of every pixel that touches a single grid element.

After the temporary raster is complete, the grid layer elevation attribute is filled using a centroid point sampling tool. The temporary raster is then removed from QGIS memory, but the interpolate raster is saved alongside the source raster. The external raster layer does not need to have the same coordinates as the project. The warp will transform the new raster into the grid coordinate system. If the elevation layer has the wrong units i.e., meters vs ft, convert the raster to the correct units with the raster calculator before running the elevation from raster processing tool.

Figure 5. Raster Elevation Dialog Box.

The GDAL warp method is modified so that only the raw input resolution of the raster is applied. This is the most accurate method for the GDAL warp. It is slower than using the ORV data.

Elevation from LiDAR

The Elevation from LiDAR calculator uses a direct average of the points within each cell. (Figure 6).

Figure 6. Point Elevation Dialog Box.

If a cell does not contain a point, the cell elevation is averaged from nearest neighbors (Figure 7). The search distance is important if the LiDAR data is filtered from buildings, overpasses, or bridges. LiDAR data for FLO-2D usually represents bare ground. If the Max search distance is too low, there may be a need to process the neighbor calculation more than once. The LiDAR processing tool will identify how many iterations are required to fill the missing grid element elevation. Please remember that there are many excellent LiDAR processing tools available, and this tool is fast and accurate so long as there aren’t too many very large buildings, overpasses, or bridges.

Figure 7. Interpolate Empty Cells Dialog.

Figure 8 shows the elevation interpolation before the missing cell correction, after the missing cell correction and the raster warp.

Figure 8. Results Test Case 5.

Elevation Adjustment Tool

The Grid Element Adjustment tool is used to make modifications and corrections to the grid element elevations without having to manipulate the original elevation dataset. It is used to make corrections where the elevation might be assigned incorrectly because of the grid element size. This process can be used to define first floor building elevations, invert elevations at headwalls, inlet rim elevation corrections and channel invert and bank elevation corrections. The Grid Elevation Adjustment tool uses several unique processes to redefine baseline elevation data.

User Layers Mode

The following User Layer corrections are available (Figure 6):

• TIN (based on elevation points and polygons)

• TIN (based on elevation polygon boundaries)

• Elevation polygons attributes

• Grid statistics within blocked areas

Figure 9. Correct Elevation Dialog Box.

TIN (based on elevation points and polygons)

This method uses a set of elevation points surrounded by triangular irregular network (TIN). The TIN generator is derived from the QgsTINInterpolator feature class that is built in to the QGIS processor libraries. The TIN generator uses the x y coordinates of the elevation correction polygon and the points within the polygon to define the TIN mesh and elevation. The TIN is finally intersected to the grid and the new elevations are assigned to each grid element covered by the TIN.

TIN (based on elevation polygon boundaries)

This method uses a polygon boundary to define a TIN. The TIN generator is derived from the QgsTINInterpolator feature class that is built in to the QGIS processor libraries. The TIN generator uses the x y coordinates of the elevation correction polygon where it intersects to the grid system. The elevations along the boundary of the polygon are used to fill or cut the data from channels or levees. The TIN is finally intersected to the grid and the new elevations are assigned to each grid element covered by the TIN.

Elevation Polygons Attributes

This method intersects the polygon layer to the grid and assigns the elevation or the elevation correction that is defined in the Polygon Attribute Elevation or Correction fields.

Grid Statistics within Blocked Areas

This method intersects the polygon to the grid and calculates the elevation statistics of min, max and mean for each cell within the polygon. The user can select the statistic to use as the final grid element elevation assignment. Each cell within the polygon will be assigned the same elevation.

External Layers Mode

The grid element correction from External Layers Mode offers several methods to correct or edit elevations in the Grid layer from polygon layers that can be imported into the FLO-2D Project in QGIS (Figure 10). The tool uses the same correction calculations discussed above in the User Layers Mode but applies them to imported polygon layers.

Figure 10. Correct Grid Elevation Dialog Box.

The polygon layer is any polygon layer in the layers list. It can be a layer that is part of the geopackage or an imported shapefile layer. The polygons in the list should cover grid elements that need to be corrected.

The polyline layer can be any external shapefile layer. It requires a buffer field that contains the width of the feature that is being sampled. This could be a ditch or a levee or a gutter. If the buffer width is less than the width of one grid element, the grid element width is sufficient as a buffer width. The polyline can be placed at the center of a feature that needs an adjustment like the ones in Figure 11. The polyline layer is essentially a polygon with the line as a center.

Figure 11. Polyline with Buffer.

The geometric predicate is the intersection method that identifies which grid elements will be adjusted. Grids within polygons means the polygon must cover the whole grid element for the grid element to be corrected. Centroids within polygons are more forgiving and only the centroid of each grid element needs to be within a polygon to be corrected.

The elevation from attributes correction tool applies a direct correction from the elevation and or correction field of the Polygon Layer. The elevation field should contain the new desired elevation in ft or m for the polygon and the correction field should contain NULL or a positive or negative correction value in ft or m. Depending on the geometric predicate, the correction is applied to each grid element or each centroid that falls within the polygon.

The statistics within polygons correction tool uses zonal statistics on wither a group of grid element or a group of pixels that are identified by the polygon. If “from grid layer” is selected, the zonal statistics are applied to the group of grid elements or centroids within the polygon. Each grid element or centroid will get a min, max or mean of the intersected grid elements. If “from raster layer” is selected, the zonal statistics are applied to the raster pixels within the polygon. Each grid element will be assigned a mean, max or min value of raster pixels within the whole elevation polygon. If statistics per grid cell is checked, the raster zonal statistics will be applied to the individual grid elements within the polygon. The checkbox should be used in most cases unless a single elevation is desired for a group of cells.

Levee Tool

The Levee Elevation Tool sees the grid as a set of octagonal sides at a specified distance from the node (Figure 12).

Figure 12. Grid Centroid and Octagonal Sides.

The Levee Elevation Tool uses polylines (Levee Lines) and crest elevation points (Elevation Points) to calculate and digitize the sides of the grid to the Levees layer as “cutoff directions”. The tool uses a combination of polyline to polygon intersection and point to point interpolation to establish the levee position and crest elevation. It intersects each side of the octagon with the Levee Line and a buffer to create individual polylines for each levee cutoff direction as shown in Figure 13.

Figure 13. Levee Cutoff Directions.

Walls

The wall calculator is a tool that is used to add polyline data to the Levee Lines (User Layer). This data can represent any levee like feature but was specifically designed to create urban wall features. The wall features are copied from a polyline shapefile with the attributes: crest elevation, correction, and name. The features are copied into the Levee User Layer.

Digitize a wall shapefile to represent the walls that will make a significant impact to the flooding in an urban development. This represents a wall that may prevent flooding in a neighborhood or walls that may cause flooding by blocking water. The depth and velocity vector maps can help identify walls that are hydraulically significant.

Wall Polyline Properties

Walls that have the potential for failure due to collapse should also be identified. The shapefile must have polyline geometry and should have the following attributes:

• Name – Feature name (string). The Name field is required by the dialog box, but the values can be null.

• Elevation – Crest elevation (ft or m) (real). For walls, this is the top elevation of the wall. This field is required but can be NULL. If NULL, the wall elevation is calculated from the correction field and described in correction as an elevation.

• Correction – Elevation correction (ft or m) (real) Null correction is OK.

  • The correction field is ignored if it is NULL. If Elevation is not NULL and Correction is positive, it will be added to the elevation of the wall.

  • If Elevation is not NULL and Correction is negative, it will be subtracted from the elevation of the wall.

  • If Elevation is NULL and Correction is filled, the Correction is used as a wall height and is applied to a wall elevation calculation using the grid max grid element + the wall height.

Figure 14 shows the relationship between a NULL elevation field and a wall height applied to the correction field.

Figure 14. Wall Height vs Wall Elevation.

Wall Failure

The wall calculator is used to assign failure data to the levee polylines. The data required for wall failure is as follows:

• Fail Elevation or Fail Depth

• Duration (0 default else, duration water is on levee before failure starts)

• Maximum Width (0 for wall collapse)

• Vertical Fail Rate (0 for wall collapse)

• Horizontal Fail Rate (0 for wall collapse)

When a failure depth option is selected, the failure elevation is calculated from the failure depth variable. Once the wall failure is assigned to the Levee Lines (User Layer), the Levee Tool will set up the walls and failure for individual grid elements. Wall failure is complicated due to elevation differences across grid elements. The Levee Tool evaluates the ground elevation on each side of the levee and applies the Failure Depth to the highest grid element. The failure elevation is calculated by adding the failure depth to the highest elevation on either side of the grid element. This condition can be seen on the right-hand side of Figure 15.

Figure 15. Grid Element Elevation and Wall Failure.

Moving Window Optimization

Walls are typically used on large projects and the calculation process can result in too much data for a computer to process. To optimize the plugin, a moving window analysis is used. This window is a geometric bounding box that samples a small set of grid elements at a time. The window size is 100 x 100 grid elements. The levee lines are clipped to the window to eliminate duplicate calculations. Figure 16 shows an example of a grid system split into a bounding box. Each box in the figure is isolated and calculated individually.

Figure 16. Levee and Wall Moving Window Example.

The final step is to identify and remove duplicates. The levee tables are sorted and scanned for additional duplicates which are removed. Redundant levees are also identified and removed. Duplicate levees are levees with the same cutoff listed twice. That means the same set of D lines for each L line. Redundant levees are levees with a neighboring cell that has a facing levee. They are not typically the same crest elevation. The plugin will identify redundant levees and delete the levee with the lower crest elevation.

Spatially Variable Data Processing

The plugin processes data for several spatially variable data sets. These include:

• Manning’s n-value

• Spatial Tol (LID)

• Spatial Limiting Froude

• Spatial Shallow n-value

• Gutters

To assign spatially variable data, the Plugin uses a combination of intersecting polygons to the grid and uses the centroid to point sample data to the grid. The spatial data is stored in the attributes table for each polygon. Figure 17 shows an example of a polygon with spatial TOL data. It needs to be assigned to any grid element that intersects the pink polygon. The processor will intersect the pink area to each grid element and extract the grid element number and the TOL variable into a specific layer. In some instances, the intersection is not necessary. A point sample that represents the center of each grid element is used to sample the polygon and extract the data of a known point based on the grid element ID.

Figure 17. Spatially Variable Data.

Area and Width Reduction Factor

The calculator intersects the polygons in the Blocked Areas (buildings) layer to the polygons in the Grid layer and uses the centroid to set up the ARF/WRF table of variables. The ARF calculator intersects the Blocked Areas polygon with the grid polygon and calculates the area of the building that occupies each grid. If the grid is totally blocked, the ARF = 1. If the blockage is greater than 0.9, the ARF is reset to 1. If the area of the building is a percentage of the grid, then the value is assessed and written to the ARF attribute. Figure 18 shows an ARF that would have a value of 4.74 / 9.29 = 0.51.

Figure 18. Area Reduction Intersection.

The WRF calculator intersects the Blocked Areas polygon to grid element. It is different in that it intersects the building to the octagonal side of the grid. The WRF calculator uses the grid centroid, half width and a Lambda function (Python, 2018) to define the grid octagon. The Lambda function defines the position of the octagon sides. The octagonal sides are intersected to the polygons in the Blocked Areas layer to calculate the width reduction factor (Figure 19).

Figure 19. Area and Width Reduction Factors.

The QGIS and GDS have slight differences in calculators.

1. The Plugin will reset ARF = 1 for any cell greater than 0.90 ARF. This can be seen in the following image. GDS left ARF = 0.94 and QGIS Right ARF = 1 (Figure 20).

Figure 20. ARF GDS / QGIS Comparison.

2. The GDS inserts redundant WRFs for cells that would otherwise be empty. This makes the GDS WRFs look more conservative, but it isn’t necessary. GDS on the left and QGIS on the right (Figure 21).

Figure 21. WRF Redundancy GDS / QGIS Comparison.

3. QGIS calculator is more accurate on cells that have partial WRFs. The GDS WRF on the left is calculated as 0.98. The QGIS WRF on the right is calculated at 0.44 and that is more accurate (Figure 22).

Figure 22. WRF Calculator GDS / QGIS Comparison.

Rainfall Interpolation Tool

The Rainfall Interpolation Tool uses rainfall depth rasters like those provided by NOAA Atlas 14. The original raster resolution is on the order of 2000 by 2000 ft pixels (Error! R eference source not found.).

Figure 23. Rainfall 24hr 100yr NOAA Atlas 14.

The interpolation processor performs a GDAL Warp function to build a rastername_interp.tif. The new raster has these properties:

• Reprojected CRS = Project CRS.

• Pixel size = grid element size.

• Clipped to Grid layer extent.

• Aligned to the grid.

The new raster (figure 24) is sampled to the grid using the centroid. Raster statistics determine the maximum rainfall value (RAIN_max). The final RAIN_arf variable is calculated as a ratio of the local rain depth to the max rain depth. A rainfall reduction value is calculated for each element in the grid system using Eq.1.

(20)\[𝑅𝐴𝐼𝑁_{arf} = \frac{𝑅𝐴𝐼𝑁_{grid}}{𝑅𝐴𝐼𝑁_{max}}\]

where:

RAIN_arf = A spatially reduced rainfall value

RAIN_grid = The rainfall sampled from the centroid of the grid element.

RAIN_max = The maximum rainfall for the raster in the project area.

Figure 24. Warped Rainfall Raster.

Real-time Rainfall Sampling Tool (NEXRAD Data)

Interpolated rainfall data from NEXRAD is an estimation of a rainfall event over a particular region using data from the NEXRAD radar network. NEXRAD (Next-Generation Radar) is a network of over 150 high-resolution Doppler weather radars operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the United States.

The spatial and temporal resolution of the radar rainfall data is limited by the network coverage, and there are gaps and inconsistencies in the precipitation data. The NEXRAD data is post processed or interpolated to rain gage data. The interpolation algorithms analyze the relationship between the radar observations and the topography of the region to estimate rainfall. The interpolated rainfall data from NEXRAD can be used by FLO-2D to simulate real storm events.

The Real-Time Rain Interpolation Tool requires ascii grid files *.asc files and a catalog file *.rtc with the rainfall heading data and list of grid files to import. There is one file for every 5 to 15 minutes of rainfall. Figure 25 shows the layout of a *.asc file and a group of files.

Figure 25. NEXRAD Rainfall *.ASC File Example.

The *.asc files are read as rasters in alphabetical order. Each raster file is warped to the grid and sampled at the centroid as described in the previous section. The grid assignment is a point sample. The data is not interpolated. The plugin will export a

RAINCELL.DAT file or a binary RAINCELL.HDF5 file. These files contain the entire rainfall event. Figure 26 shows an example of the rainfall data file.

Figure 26. RAINCELL.DAT.

Infiltration Development Tools

The Infiltration Editor is used to assign infiltration data globally or spatially from polygon layers. The Infiltration calculators can use embedded layers for infiltration or imported layers. The infiltration calculators intersect the infiltration polygons to each cell to calculate area weighted infiltration parameters. The infiltration calculator is optimized to run on large projects with millions of cells. The optimization process isolates blocks of polygon data and runs them individually as defined by small bounding boxes that break up the data for processing. Individual calculations are addressed below for each infiltration type.

Green and Ampt

There are various methods for assigning spatially variable Green and Ampt data. The Schematize method assigns data directly to the grid from polygons digitized to the Infiltration Areas layer. The calculator calculates data from external soils and landuse layers.

Schematize Method

The Schematize Method samples the Infiltration Areas polygons from the grid centroid and assigns the infiltration values that are written in the Green Ampt fields. These fields are the fields that are written to the INFIL.DAT file:

• green_char – green ampt character

• hydc – hydraulic conductivity

• soils – soil suction

• dtheta – soil moisture deficit

• abstrinf – initial abstraction

• rtimpf – impervious percentage

• soildepth – soil depth

The attribute data is written to the infil_cells_green table. The widget uses the poly2grid processor. This processor uses an intersection where the grid element centroid is located within a polygon in the Infiltration Areas layer. The Green-Ampt attributes for the grid elements are copied to the infil_cells_green table. Any grid element that does not contain a polygon is not written to the table. That infiltration data will default to the Global Infiltration parameters.

Green and Ampt (FCDMC Method 2023)

The Calculate Green and Ampt Method intersects the landuse and soils polygons to the grid polygons and calculates a spatially variable infiltration from the external layers. Figure 27 shows the Compute Green-Ampt dialog for the FCDMC Method 2023.

Figure 27. Compute Green-Ampt dialog (FCDMC Method 2023)

This method follows the guidelines in the FCDMC Hydrology Manual from 2023 (FCDMC, 2023). The difference between this method and the 2018 method is the Log Average of PSIF. The general calculations are as follows:

XKSAT

XKXAT is the hydraulic conductivity in in/hr or mm/hr of the soil layer. Figure 28 shows the hydraulic conductivity of the soil layer.

Figure 28. Soil layer with XKSAT.

The area weighted log average is calculated for each grid element from the soil layer (Eq.2).

(21)\[{\overline{XKSAT}}_{grid} = 10\ \hat{}\ \left( \frac{\Sigma A_{i}*log({XKSAT}_{i})}{A_{ge}} \right)\]

where:

XKSAT_i is obtained from the soil attribute table.

A_i is the subarea intercepted by the grid element from the 3^rd column of the landuse table and AGE is the grid element area.

PSIF

PSIF is the wetting front capillary suction in or mm of the soil layer (Figure 29).

Figure 29. Soil Layer with PSIF.

The area weighted log average is calculated for each grid element from the soil layer (Eq.3). The soil polygon is intersected with the grid polygon to provide the A_i.

(22)\[{\overline{PSIF}}_{grid} = 10\ \hat{}\ \left ( \frac{\Sigma A_{i}*log({PSIF}_{i})}{A_{ge}} \right)\]

where:

PSIF_i is obtained from the soil attribute table.

A_i is subarea intercepted by the grid element from the 3^rd column of the landuse table and AGE the grid element area.

DTHETA

DTHETA is the soil moisture deficit. It ranges in value from zero to the effective porosity of the soil (Figure 30).

Figure 30. Soil Layer with DTHETA.

DTHETA represents the soil moisture capacity for the start of a rainfall event. The initial soil conditions vary with respect to landuse categories like irrigation or ponded water conditions. Initial saturation is part of the landuse data (see Figure 31).

Figure 31. Landuse with Initial Saturation Condition.

As a result, DTHETA is split into individual parts that represent the DTHETA (wet, dry or normal). DTHETA_wet is zero, DTHETA_dry and DTHETA_normal are calculated for the soil layers for individual soil groups (Figure 32).

Figure 32. DTHETA Dry and Normal.

After the soil layer is intersected with the landuse, DTHETA_parts attributes are filled.

DTHETA_wet, DTHETA_normal, and DTHETA_dry attributes are filled for individual parts. Once DTHETA_parts is complete, DTHETA_grid is calculated using a weighted average for each grid element (Eq.4).

(23)\[{\overline{DTHETA}}_{\mathbf{grid}} = \left( \frac{\Sigma A_{i}*{DTHETA}_{i}}{A_{ge}} \right)\]

where:

DTHETA_i is taken from the intersected landsoil DTHETA_parts.

A_i is the subarea intercepted by the grid element from the 3^rd column of the landuse table and AGE is the grid element area.

If a grid element is within by a “wet” or “saturated” polygon, the DTHETA for that grid = 0.

RTIMP

RTIMP is the percent impervious of the landuse (paved surfaces, buildings) and the soil (rockout). Figure 33 shows the rock out percentages for the landuse layer.

Figure 33. Landuse with Rockout Percentages.

Intersecting the landuse with the soil combines the data into a single layer (land_soil) of polygon features with attributes of RTIMP_land and RTIMP_natural. The RTIMP_max is given by Eq.5.

(24)\[{RTI MP}_{\max} = \max({RTIMP}_{land,\ }{RTIMP}_{natural})\]

where:

RTIMP_max is the maximum impervious value of the intersection between the landuse data and the soil data.

RTIMP_land is percent impervious related to buildings, paved surfaces.

RTIMP_natural is percent impervious of the rock outcrop.

RTIMP_grid is the intersection of the land_soil and the grid. This is an area weighted average impervious decimal calculation (Eq.6) for each grid element.

(25)\[{RTIMP}_{grid} = \ \frac{\left( \frac{\Sigma{RTIMP}_{\max}*(A_{i})}{A_{ge}} \right)}{100}\]

where:

RTIMP_grid is the final decimal percent impervious for each grid element. RTIMP_max is the maximum impervious polygon intersected from the land_soil intersection.

Ai is the subarea intersected by the grid element and the RTIMP_max polygon.

A_ge is the area of the grid element.

RTIMP_final is an intersection of the EFF Areas layer and the Grid. Any centroid within an EFF polygon is applied to an EFF or effectiveness of the impervious field (Eq.7).

(26)\[{RTIMP }_{final} = \ \left( {RTIMP}_{grid}*(EFF*.01) \right)\]

where:

RTIMP_final is the effective imperviousness of the grid element.

RTIMP_grid is the intersected imperviousness of the grid element. The geometric predicate is centroid within.

The Green-Ampt parameters are printed to the spatially variable lines of the INFIL.DAT file (Figure 34). The INFIL.DAT structure is outlined in the Data Input Manual at the INFIL.DAT tab. More information on how FLO-2D uses the Green-Ampt method to calculate rainfall runoff is available in the FLO-2D Pro Reference Manual.

Figure 34. Example INFIL.DAT file.

VC

VC is the vegetative cover related to the topsoil horizon. Figure 35 shows the vegetative cover of the landuse layer.

Figure 35. Landuse with Vegetative Cover.

It is used to adjust XKSAT (Eq.2) as a function of the vegetation cover VC (Eq.8) from the landuse table when XSAT < 0.4 in/hr. This requires a computation of the ratio of the hydraulic conductivity for the vegetative cover to the bare ground hydraulic conductivity (Eq.9):

(27)\[C_{K} = \left( \frac{{VC}_{K} - 10)}{90} \right) + 1\]

(28)\[XKSATC = XKSAT\ \sum_{k}^{}{P_{k}C_{k}}\]

where:

P_k is the percentage of the area within the grid element corresponding to C_k and XKSATC for each grid element is written in the INFIL.DAT file.

IA

IA is the initial abstraction for each grid element. Figure 36 shows the initial abstraction for the landuse layer.

Figure 36. Landuse with Initial Abstraction.

The intersection between the landuse and grid element gives an area weighted average for the initial abstraction (Eq.10):

(29)\[IABSTR\ = \left( \frac{\sum_{}^{}{A_{i}({IA}_{i})}}{A_{GE}} \right)\]

where:

IA_i is the initial abstraction in the subarea Ai intercepted by the element and is based on the 3^rd column of the landuse table. The intercepted subareas are computed using the landuse shape file and IABSTR is added to the INFIL.DAT file for each element.

Green and Ampt (FCDMC Method 2018)

The 2018 method for Green-Ampt uses a different calculator for PSIF and DTHETA. Figure 37 shows the Compute Green-Ampt dialog for the FCDMC Method 2018.

Figure 37. Green-Ampt dialog (FCDMC Method 2018)

For each grid element, compute wetting front capillary suction PSIF according to the following regressions as a function of XKSAT (Generated from Figure 4.3 of the Maricopa County Drainage Design Manual, 2018).

XKSAT (in/hr)	PSIF (in)
0.01 ≤ XKSAT ≤ 1.2	PSIF = EXP(0.9813 - 0.439*Ln(XKSAT) + 0.0051(Ln(XKSAT))^2 + 0.0060(Ln(XKSAT))^3)

For each grid element, compute volumetric soil moisture deficiency (DTHETA) according to the following table. The specific table used for DTHETA depends on the saturation field of the soil table (6th column).

Saturation = DRY

XKSAT (in/hr)	DTHETA DRY
0.01 ≤ XKSAT ≤ 0.15	DTHETA =EXP(-0.2394 + 0.3616 Ln(XKSAT))
0.15 ≤ XKSAT ≤ 0.25	DTHETA =EXP(-1.4122 - 0.2614 Ln(XKSAT))
0.25 ≤ XKSAT ≤ 1.2	DTHETA = 0.35

Moving Window Optimization

The moving window code is used to speed up the Green-Ampt infiltration calculator. This window is a geometric bounding box that samples a small set of grid elements at a time. The window size is 100 x 100 grid elements. The polygons are clipped to the window to eliminate duplicate calculations.

SCS Curve

There are two methods for assigning spatially variable SCS data. The Schematize method assigns data directly to the grid from polygons digitized to the Infiltration Areas layer. This is the most effective method.

The Calculator assigns the SCS curve number from a single external polygon. It can also calculate the Pima County method from a combined layer with soil, coverage density and impervious areas. Each method intersects the infiltration polygons to the grid and assigns an area weighted average to each grid element. The calculator method requires polygon layers with no geometric deficiencies and therefore is not as desirable as the Schematize method.

Horton

The Schematize Method assigns data directly to the grid from polygons digitized to the Infiltration Areas layer. The required data fields are:

• fhorti – Initial infiltration rate

• fhortf – Final infiltration rate

• deca – Decay coefficient

The schematize method intersects the Horton polygons to the grid and assigns the variables using an area weighted average.

Channel Development Tools

The channel development tools use several methods and calculators for channel development. A channel is composed of three polyline layers for the banks and cross sections and a point layer for confluences. The channel layers are defined by intersecting the left banks to the grid at the nearest centroid to the left bank.

Left Bank Layers

The Left Bank User Layer defines the geographical position of the left bank. The Plugin uses this polyline layer to intersect and connect the left bank grid elements. The position of the left bank elements is dependent on the position of the polyline vertices. It is important to note that if left bank schematization does not have accurate bank coverage, more vertices may be required along the length of the polyline.

The Left Bank Schematic Layer is a polyline layer that represents the real position of the FLO-2D channel with a single vertex representing each channel element in a segment. Multiple polyline features are used to represent separate channel segments. Figure 38 shows a sample of the two separate layers.

Figure 38. Left Bank Layers.

Cross Section Layers

The Channel Cross Section User Layer is used to define the channel geometry and the position of the right bank (Figure 39). The data requirement is station elevation data from the left top of bank to the right top of bank. The station elevation data is obtained from several sources including survey data or profile data from rasters or points. The data can also be defined for trapezoidal or rectangular channels. The last data source is a variable area equation such as: A = a*d^b. Where the area is defined by a coefficient, depth, and exponent.

Figure 39. Cross Section User Layer.

Right Banks

The Standard schematization button will produce a right bank according to the position of the cross sections. It works somewhat similar to the left bank but will allow for more than one cross section to be assigned to a right bank.

Bank Elevation

The plugin uses two methods to define bank elevation. The first is to assign the bank elevation in the cross section data. This is the only method for N (Natural) channels as the bank elevation is assigned in the Station Elevation table. Assigning bank elevation is the preferred method for T (trapezoidal), R (rectangular), and V (variable area) channels. With this method, the left and right bank data is assigned to Left Bank Elevation and Right Bank Elevation fields in the Cross Section User Layer attributes.

The second bank elevation method is to leave the Left Bank Elevation and Right Bank Elevation variables NULL. This method only works with the T, R, and V channel types. The NULL variable assignment results in No Data being assigned to the Schematized Left Bank Layer. When no data is assigned, the Left Bank Elevation and Right Bank Elevation is not written to CHAN.DAT. The model uses the grid element elevation in lieu of the missing data.

Interpolation

The Plugin uses the same interpolator that the PROFILES program uses. It is an external App that is installed into the FLO-2D Pro subdirectory along with the FLO-2D software. The Plugin exports the CHAN.DAT, CHANBANK.DAT, and XSEC.DAT and executes the interpolation program. The data is reloaded into the Plugin Schematic Layers with the interpolation dialog box.

Import HEC-RAS

The Import HEC-RAS tool is used to import channel data from HEC-RAS geometry files. The RAS project must be georeferenced and in the same coordinate system as the GeoPackage. This system can import channel geometry, full cross sections, bank to bank cross sections, interpolated cross sections and levees.

Figure 40. HEC-RAS Import.

Upon import, the HEC-RAS channels are saved to the User Layers (Figure 40). The data is saved to the left bank and cross section layers. It is important to note that the data imported to QGIS is read from the *.g0 file in linear order. The channels are imported as segment 1 being the first data set and segment 2 is next in order of the geometry file. If the channel data is in the wrong order, it should be corrected before being imported.

Cross sections are saved to the Cross Section layer in the order by which they were written to the geometry file. The cross section names are extracted from the river mile field (Figure 41).

Figure 41. Channel Cross Sections.

Storm Drain Development Tools

The FLO-2D surface water model has a dynamic exchange with the storm drain system. FLO-2D calculates the surface water depth at grid cells. Those cells that contain the storm drain inlets use the surface water depth and the inlet geometry, to compute the discharge inflow to the storm drain system. The storm drain engine then routes the flow in the pipe network and calculates potential return flow to the surface water system (Figure 42).

The Storm Drain Editor application and setup are well documented in the FLO-2D Plugin User Manual

A detailed tutorial is available Storm Drain Tutorial

Figure 42. Storm Drain Layout in QGIS.

The Storm Drain data files (SWMM.INP and *.DAT files) can be developed from scratch in the FLO-2D Plugin Storm Drain Editor by assigning the data from shapefiles to the storm drain features. Figure 43 shows the Storm Drain dialog box.

Figure 43. Storm Drain Dialog Box.

QGIS can be used to create the storm drain shapefiles for Inlets/Junctions, Outfalls and Conduits. These shapefiles contain all the required data to fill the Storm Drain data files (see FLO-2D Plugin User’s Manual and FLO-2D Storm Drain Manual for more information about the required data for each component). If the storm drain shapefiles exist, they can be imported into the QGIS project. If the storm drain shapefiles do not exist, they can be digitized into Storm Drain User Layers (Figure 44).

Figure 44. Storm Drain Shapefiles.

Storm Drain Components

The Storm Drain Configuration Tool (Figure 45), is the main processing tool for storm drain development. The algorithms copy features and attributes from shapefiles into the storm drain tables and layers. This organizes the data in a manner that is ideal for the swmm.inp, SWMMFLO.DAT, and SWMMOUTF.DAT data files.

Figure 45. Select Components from Shapefile Layer: Inlet/Junctions.

The data layout and organization prevent array allocation errors between FLO-2D engine and the storm drain engine. The features are written in the correct order from between swmm.inp and SWMMFLO.DAT.

Figure 46. Data Organization Inlets.

The finished tables can be validated and edited with the node and link dialog boxes (Figure 47). These boxes highlight and pan/zoom to the current feature and allow extra data to be assigned. Changes to these dialog boxes automatically update the storm drain arrays.

Figure 47. Review Attributes from Storm Drain Table.

Digitizing Storm Drain Features

Storm Drain features can be created in QGIS for the development of the INP file. Point layer shapefiles must be created for Inlets/Junctions and outfalls. Line Layer Shapefiles must be created for conduits. Once the shapefiles have been created, features from the shapefiles can be selected and assigned to the storm drain data.

The storm drain editor has an option to Select Components from Shapefile Layer in the Storm Drain Editor. The selected attributes will be assigned to the Inlets/Junctions, Outfalls and Conduits Components Tables in User Layers.

The data must be schematized using the schematize button in the Storm Drain Editor.

Then the *.INP can be created by clicking Export SWMM.inp. Storm drain data files as:

SWMMFLO.DAT file, SWMMOUTF.DAT File and SWMMFLORT.DAT file will be created when FLO-2D Data Files are exported in the QGIS Project. The Storm Drain component needs to be turned ON in the FLO-2D Control and Tolerance Variables.

Importing existing *.INP file

An existing *.INP file can be imported with the buttons in Figure 48 once the FLO-2D surface model has been already created. The Storm Drain Editor has an option to Import SWMM.inp that can be used to read an existing *.INP file. Storm drain systems created using other software can be imported if the format is compatible with EPA SWMM Version 5.

Figure 48. Import Export SWMM.INP Options.

The storm drain features will be read from the *.INP file and the Inlets/Junctions, Outfalls and Conduits tables in the components section in the Storm Drain Editor will be completed.

Auto assign nodes

The auto assign tool (Figure 49) scans the polyline data and finds the nodes at the upstream and downstream end. The node names fields from the Link tables are filled automatically.

Figure 49. Auto Assign Tool.

The algorithm uses a loop to read the xy coordinate of each end of the polyline using the xat,yat vertex(1) and xat,yat vertex (-1). This calls the first and last vertex of each line. A small buffer is then applied to each of the points. If a node is within the buffer, it is assigned to the InNode or OutNode table for each of the Link features. It is important that the links are digitized in the correct flow direction. Arrows are used in the feature style to represent the flow direction. Figure 50 shows the nodes next to each end of the link and the flow direction is shown by the blue arrows.

Figure 50. Link Node and Flow Direction.

Rating Tables and Pump Curves

The rating table and pump curve tools (Figure 51) can import or build tabular data for type 4 inlets and pumps. These tools are connected to the table and plotting windows shown in Figure 52. These tools facilitate data assignment by automatically finding node names or link names and assigning the data with the same name.

Figure 51. Rating Tables and Pump Curves.

Figure 52. Table Editor and Plotting Window.

Hazus tools

The Hazus tool will generate a raster maximum depth file that can be used as an input for the FEMA Hazus program. The required layers include building shape files, grid cell elevations, grid cell depth and water surface elevations. The user must define ground elevation, water surface elevation and maximum flow depth for each building. An adjustment factor can be applied to calculate the finished floor elevation. Figure 53 shows the tool requirements.

Figure 53. Hazus Tool.

The process to generate a Hazus raster is outlined in the User’s Manual. It requires the use of several general QGIS tools for importing, intersecting, calculating, and rasterizing data. The requirements and calculations are outlined below for each layer.

• Building layer – This layer is used to define the building locations and set the building ID.

• Depth and water surface data – FLO-2D results imported as text files.

• Assign water surface and depth – This calculation process uses a simple Join feature to write the results into the Grid layer.

• Intersect buildings layer – This QGIS process splits the building polygons into separate polygons for each grid element.

• Homogenize the building intersection layer – This process joins the split buildings to the grid elevation, depth and water elevation data and calculates statistics for the building.

• Join building statistics to building polygons – This QGIS process writes the stats back to the Buildings layer.

• Rasterize – This QGIS process rasterizes building depth and water surface data for Hazus.
