Pages : 30
Book Description
Current methods of the HEC-1 Flood Hydrograph Package are presented. The HEC-1 model provides a wide range of hydrologic capabilities along with several unique analysis features. The current limitations of the model are reviewed. Presently, much work is being done to overcome several of these limitations. Near-term developments have concentrated on making the operational environment user friendly and improving several of the hydrologic analysis features. The direction of HEC's future watershed modeling efforts is described. These efforts focus on improving the user environment and advancing the hydrologic analysis capabilities to maintain state-of-the-art technology. Keywords: Hydrology; Forecasting; computerized simulation.

Book Description
In the broadest sense of systems analysis, the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) has been actively applying systems analysis techniques since its inception in 1964. HEC's basic systems analysis method has been the simulation of watershed and river basin processes. Several other systems analysis activities are an outgrowth of that basic simulation capability: automated parameter estimation algorithms, synthetic streamflow generation, network analysis, branch-and-bound search techniques, numerical methods, risk and uncertainty analysis, and expert systems. Systems analysis at the HEC has been an approach to problem solving as much as the actual technical methods. This philosophy of problem solving can be likened to a local hardware store's approach to do-it-yourself home repair. The hardware store personnel make a genuine effort to understand the homeowner's problem; then, they offer tools, supplies, and advice to solve the problem. Examples of these systems analysis techniques and their application to hydrologic engineering problem solving, are presented in this paper.

Book Description
Water resources planning at the federal level is comprehensive multi-purpose multi-objective planning. The increasing complexity of issues, planning alternatives, and evaluation criteria have spawned an ever growing need for increased data and associated analysis procedures. The increased number of such models, both demanding and generating large amounts of data, have stimulated awareness of the need for planning oriented data management systems. This paper describes recent activities of the Corps of Engineers Hydrologic Engineering Center in data management for water resources planning studies.
