Hydraulic (HEC-RAS) model of the Lower San Saba River between Harkeyville and San Saba, TX, USA ...

This model is a two-dimensional (2D) hydraulic model created in the Hydraulic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System (HEC-RAS). The model was created for a segment of the San Saba River between Harkeyville and San Saba, TX, USA. The model’s geometry is based on United States Geological Survey 3D Elevation Program data collected in 2018, and the channel bathymetry was burned in using cross-sectional data collected by Texas State University researchers in 2018. The model was calibrated using water surface elevation and velocity measurements taken during field data collection. ... : Available... Mehr ...

TruPulse 360r 3 feet to nonideal (natural) target Data was collected between June 4th and June 27th, 2018. During this time period, USGS gage 08146000 (San Saba, TX) recorded discharges ranging from 11.9 to 396 cfs, with an average discharge of 20 cfs. USGS 3DEP 1 m resolution data collected between February 14th and April 22nd, 2018, was used to create the HEC-RAS terrain (Merrick-Surdex 2018). Discharge at USGS gage 08146000 ranged from 40.5 to 966 cfs ...
