I am sort of forwarding a friends question related to hydro-processing.
While there is a proper (vector) contour map and a very clean stream
network map (digitised from scratch upon topographic maps of 1:50.000)
available, the flow direction map is missing.
Is this information easily calculated based on available dem(s), stream
network(s)? Or should _definitely_ the user add this information while
digitising the streams?
I have read many past threads wrt "streams, flow, direction, accumulation"
but could not trace an answer to the above question.
I read again some stuff and I guess that this is a very basic and simple
"hydro-gis" question (for which I do not know the answer):
is the direction map bound to a specific stream network, i.e. the one that
r.watershed or r.stream.extract produces or is it an independent one, based
solely on the input elevation model and its (x-y-z?) resolution?
If the latter is true, then it only takes to use either r.watershed or
r.stream.extract to get the direction(s).
If not, then the question is if the user can supply his own stream map to
r.stream.* modules (specifically to r.stream.extract) in order to get the
desired flow direction map?
Interested question, but I think the easiest answer is carving or stream
burining (r.stream.carve). Next reproduce r.watershed or
r.stream.extract you shall receive (almost) ideally confidential network
with supplied
