1   Link   River Management Decision Modelling in IQQM
Case study : Murray Darling basin (Australia). Water Sharing Plans were developed after extensive consultation with communities and other stakeholders. During the consultative process, numerous complex variations of water sharing rules were identified. Modelling those rules was possible using IQQM Decision Tree.

3   Link   MapWindow GIS Open Source Software
The MapWindow application is a free, extensible, geographic information system (GIS)
Unlike other free tools, MapWindow is more than just a data viewer, it is an extensible geographic information system. This means that you can write plug-ins to add additional functionality (models, special viewers, hot-link handlers, data editors, etc.) and pass these along to any number of your clients and end users.

MapWindow includes standard GIS data visualization features as well as DBF attribute table editing, shapefile editing, and grid importing and conversion.

5   Link   ASTER Global Digital Elevation Map
Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and industry (METI) and NASA announced the release of the ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) on June 29, 2009. The GDEM was created by stereo-correlating the 1.3 million scene ASTER VNIR archive, covering the Earth’s land surface between 83N and 83S latitudes. The GDEM is produced with 30 meter postings, and is formatted in 1 x 1 degree tiles as GeoTIFF files. Each GDEM file is accompanied by a Quality Assessment file, either giving the number of ASTER scenes used to calculate a pixel’s value, or indicating the source of external DEM data used to fill the ASTER voids.

The Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC), an organization within the Institute for Water Resources, is the designated Center of Expertise for the US Army Corps of Engineers in the technical areas of surface and groundwater hydrology, river hydraulics and sediment transport, hydrologic statistics and risk analysis, reservoir system analysis, planning analysis, real-time water control management and a number of other closely associated technical subjects. HEC supports Corps field offices, headquarters, and laboratories by providing technical methods and guidance, water resources models and associated utilities, training and workshops, accomplishing research and development, and performing technical assistance and special projects. The products that are developed from these activities are for the Corps but are available to the public and may be freely downloaded from this web site.

12   Link   WaterSim 5.0
The Decision Center for a Desert City announces the release of a new version of WaterSim. WaterSim 5.0 represents an adaptation and upgrade of WaterSim 4.0 for stakeholders, researchers and educators.

The current version incorporates the water portfolios for 33 water providers that vary in size from small municipalities to major metropolitan communities. WaterSim 5.0 runs on an annual time-step where simulations can be interrupted annually by the interface enabling runtime changes to policy levers or input specifications. Model downloads and documentation can be found in related sub-directions on this site.

14   Link   MODSIM-DSS - river basin Decision Support System and network flow model
MODSIM-DSS is a generalized river basin Decision Support System and network flow model developed at Colorado State University designed specifically to meet the growing demands and pressures on river basin managers today.

Rapid growth in population centers and mounting needs for irrigation have dramatically increased the need to expand sources of reliable water supply, while attending to environmental and ecological issues. Publically owned water systems must often deal with severe restrictions from complex legal agreements, contracts, federal regulations, interstate compacts, and pressures from various special interest groups. Optimal coordination of these many facets of river basin systems requires the assistance of computer modeling tools to make rational management decisions.

The RORB runoff routing software was developed within the Water Group of the Department of Civil Engineering by Eric Laurenson and Russell Mein. The latest version (RORB Version 6.14, 2010) is the result of a collaboration between Monash University (Russell Mein) and Sinclair Knight Merz (Rory Nathan), with support from the Melbourne Water Corporation. It is now freely available in the public domain for download by those who wish to use the program.

19   Link   The Global Environmental Flow Calculator (GEFC)
The Global Environmental Flow Calculator (GEFC) is a software package for desktop rapid assessment of Environmental Flows (EFs). The EF estimation technique in GEFC is using monthly time step series reflecting “natural” / unregulated flow conditions and its corresponding Flow Duration Curve (FDC)- a cumulative distribution function of flows. The FDC is represented by 17 percentage points on the probability (X) axis. EFs aim to maintain an ecosystem in, or upgrade it to some prescribed or negotiated condition - “Environmental Management Class (EMC).” The higher the EMC, the more water is needed for ecosystem maintenance and more flow variability needs to be preserved. Six EMCs are used in GEFC, ranging from “Unmodified” to “Critically Modified.” Each EMC is represented by its unique FDC. The FDC for each class is determined by the lateral shift of the original reference FDC to the left along the probability (X) axis by one percentage point. Each EMC is effectively an EF scenario. The EMC best suited for the river in question may be selected-based on expert judgment. A FDC established for each EMC can be converted into an EF time series.

20   Link   The Toolik-Arctic Geobotanical Atlas (TAGA)
The Toolik-Arctic Geobotanical Atlas (TAGA) is a web-based multi-scale collection of geobotanical maps and related material. It includes maps at seven different scales, from 1-m2 plots to the entire Arctic. The TAGA focuses on research sites at the Toolik Field Station and Imnavait Creek, Alaska, but also covers the Kuparuk River Basin, northern Alaska, Arctic Alaska, and the Circumpolar Arctic. Diverse geobotanical themes include geology, topography landforms, surficial geomorphology, soils, and vegetation. The maps and web site were developed at the Alaska Geobotany Center in collaboration with several other groups at the University of Alaska Fairbanks
