StarHydro and tRIBS animation

I just posted a new version of StarHydro beta.
It features (limited) support for tRIBS analysis by previewing animation of simulation progress.



Here you can see tRIBS tab that features project name, variable and allows you to adjust tRIBS TIN over StarHydro DEM.

Also, position is position within simulation and by moving slider one can see different snapshots of particular variable (in this case SoilMoist).

Long way to go, and this is not yet optimized, but ... it is a progress...

P.S. It only works for Blue River at this stage...

StarHydro beta 20090317

Hi,

I just updated StarHydro with significant refactoring of visualization code that should lower it's memory footprint significantly.

Next thing to do will be to integrate tRIBS visualization in StarHydro codebase.

StarHydro beta 20080911

StarHydro2 now features location of the mouse over map, allowing for precise watershed delineation.

StarHydro now features improvement in GIUH rainfall module.
It allow user to specify locations of gauges and export them into excel.
User can then edit excel file, add rainfall information and import from chart tab.
Rainfall from each gauge is convoluted with appropriate coverage area to generate convoluted chart.

StarHydro 20071005(beta) released

Improvements include:
Layout changes
Convolution improvements

StarHydro 20070924(beta) released

Major improvements in this addition of first iteration of convolution to GIUH.

Other changes are:
- Two new maps are added HJ Andrews and Little Washita
- Coordinates button is checked by default (when one moves mouse over map button in status bar displays coordinates)
- Network order follows streams (as fish swims, not as crow flies)
- 3rd button on 3-button mouse zooms
- scroll wheel zooms map
- drainage density units are m/km2
- hypsometric curve utilizes terrain coloring to emphasize link with terrain height
- hypsometric curve domain title is updated
- apple l&f for menu bar is disabled
- layer visibility is tab dependent
- DEM information is added to Watershed layer
- Transparency is removed
- Width function topological domain title is updated

StarHydro 20070806(alpha) released

This is minor improvements build targeted toward our usability test tomorrow.

Tooltips, charts, units and other misc items are added or modified.

As always version is available http://web.mit.edu/star/hydro

StarHydro 20070727(alpha) released

This build focuses on UI improvements, other improvements are minor…

It is a minor update to yesterdays build.

It features:
- Units on regionalization form
- Fixed hypsometric curve
- Added "Tip" on Watershed page
- Added "Tip" on Horton nr page

Updates are as always available at: http://web.mit.edu/star/hydro

StarHydro 20070726(alpha) released

This build focuses on UI improvements, other improvements are minor…

• When starting application, dialog prompts user to select map to work with
• Watershed view is updated, and units are added
• User can type stream accumulation threshold
• Network view is split in: Horton nr and Width fns
• Horton nr split view in charts and separates log scale & trend line controls
• Horton charts colors corresponds with "stream order network" i.e. points on the chart have appropriate color as stream order on the map

• Width functions are split to 3 charts for easier usability
• All tabs are redone with new layout manager and labels are added to sections (Look & Feel change)
• IUH chart colors correspond to "Simple Instant Unit Hydrograph" layer colors
• Some chart colors correspond to map
• All chats have a little diskette next to them, clicking on diskette reveals data in the charts
• There is a button in status bar that allows user to see coordinates where mouse intersects map

StarHydro 20070717(alpha) released

This build is focused on improvements on regionalization worker. Other improvements are minor...

StarHydro is available at http://web.mit.edu/star/hydro

• Implement regionalization worker to include:
• |Avg (Xi) - XL| <> deltaAvg
  
• |Any(Xi) - XL| <> deltaAny
  

• Regionalization
• Units
• How to set a variable so that it is not used?
• No decimal numbers for parameters
• Not too sensitive to aspect

• Change topo -> Topological
• Export regionalization data ($HOME/starhydro_workspace/points.export)
• Format (tab separated file)

Id Area isChannel

Center_of_mass [x-z]

Elevation Slope Aspect

Downstream_Id

Flow_path_length

Downstram_channel_id

Flow_path_to_channel_length

• Regionalization PDF Charts (added to PDFns)
• Regionalization PDF area chart
• Regionalization layers (colored, non-colored and channel)

StarHydro 20070710(alpha) released

Release notes for 2007/07/10

Important note

Update to the format of local cache requires it to be cleared between version 20070707 and 20070709!

New features

Post information how to build datasets

Please Look at StarHydro datasets on instructions how to build your own dataset.

Change local format to XYZ

Local format of cache is now text XYZ coordinates for filled, flowacc, flowdir and projected terrain layers.

This is the format generated by ArcGIS when gridascii command is used.

Rename tabs

• Basic -> Watershed
• Planar -> Network
• Relief -> Topography
• Hydrographic -> IUH
• PDF -> PDFn
• Regionalization -> Same… Network: Areas -> Area

IUH: Normalize chart
Stream network not visible on Mac OS X
