Download or read book Application of Spatial data Management Techniques in Corps Planning written by Darryl W. Davis and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatial-data management techniques allow convenient, cost-effective representation of the spatially-varying data that are necessary for effective water and related-land resources planning. Application of the techniques began in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the early 1970's as an experiment. Since then, the techniques have been used for regional planning studies, major flood-control studies, and limited-scope investigations. The HEC-SAM software, developed and supported by the staff of the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC), has made practical these applications. Keywords: Geographic information systems; Data bases.
Download or read book The Development and Servicing of Spatial Data Management Techniques in the Corps of Engineers written by R. Pat Webb and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is using spatial data management techniques in studies that are structured in a manner that requires spatial data management techniques to play a central and dominant role. The Corps of Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) provided the basic developmental work on the spatial data management and attendant processing techniques and it is continuing in the role of the basic technology transfer agent. The significant efforts required to document, maintain and service the technology and provide ready consultation service reported herein were planned for during the developmental efforts and are currently being centrally managed to encourage smooth adoption of the techniques by Corps field offices.

Download or read book Flood Mitigation Planning Using HEC SAM written by Darryl W. Davis and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flood control and flood plain management investigations using spatial data management techniques are increasing in the Corps of Engineers. Pilot studies initiated in the mid-1970's were successful in consolidating analysis concepts, fostering the development of spatial data file creation and management technology and enhancing the consideration of existing and alternative future development patterns in Corps' planning studies. Over 30 studies using HEC-SAM, the Corps' spatial data management system, are now completed or underway. HEC-SAM was created through selective acquisition of commercial software, adaption of academic research products, and development by researchers at the Corps' Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC). The HEC role continues to be that of system developer and technology transfer agent. The evolution, present capabilities, and applications of HEC-SAM are described. Observations are offered on spatial technology development, implementation, and servicing. (Author).
Download or read book Data Management Systems for Water Resources Planning written by Darryl W. Davis and published by . This book was released on 1981* with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Corps' Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) has developed a generalized simulation model capable of analyzing complex river-reservoir systems. The development of the model, 'HEC-5, Simulation of Flood Control and Conservation Systems' (Eichert, 1974, 1975) has been paced by the changing mission of the Corps as well as the evolution of computer systems. HEC-5 development and management, including code development, testing, documentation, training and field application experience, is discussed. (fr).

Download or read book Spatial Data Management written by Nikos Mamoulis and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2012 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spatial database management deals with the storage, indexing, and querying of data with spatial features, such as location and geometric extent. Many applications require the efficient management of spatial data, including Geographic Information Systems, Computer Aided Design, and Location Based Services. The goal of this book is to provide the reader with an overview of spatial data management technology, with an emphasis on indexing and search techniques. It first introduces spatial data models and queries and discusses the main issues of extending a database system to support spatial data. It presents indexing approaches for spatial data, with a focus on the R-tree. Query evaluation and optimization techniques for the most popular spatial query types (selections, nearest neighbor search, and spatial joins) are portrayed for data in Euclidean spaces and spatial networks. The book concludes by demonstrating the ample application of spatial data management technology on a wide range of related application domains: management of spatio-temporal data and high-dimensional feature vectors, multi-criteria ranking, data mining and OLAP, privacy-preserving data publishing, and spatial keyword search. Table of Contents: Introduction / Spatial Data / Indexing / Spatial Query Evaluation / Spatial Networks / Applications of Spatial Data Management Technology
