L 4 C Gridded Data 2022

Grid data in HEC-HMS can exist as individual rasters with no time association or as gridsets which are time series of rasters. Grid data is imported into HEC-DSS using various import tools and formats like ASCII and GeoTIFF then gridsets are created in HEC-HMS by linking the DSS data source. The grid data importer allows preprocessing of grid files during import including clipping, projection handling, and resampling before writing to DSS for use in HEC-HMS modeling.

What’s a Grid?
• Spatial data on a regular
lattice
• Raster data
• Each pixel represents an
average value over the cell
HMS: Two Grid Philosophies
• A grid is a raster with no
notion of time

• A gridset is a set of
rasters with each indexed
by time
Data Sources
• Varies by type of data
• All can use HEC-DSS
• Grids can use raster data
formats
• ASCII
• GeoTIFF
Gridset Workflow
Gridsets are more complicated
because a time-series of grids is
involved

1. Import source data to HEC-DSS


2. Create gridset in HEC-HMS
3. Link the datasource

Grid Data Importer
• A set of utilities for importing grid
data to DSS are available
• Import from one or many files
• Choose which variables to import
• Clip
• Handle projections
• Resample
Export Subbasins Layer
Step 1 - File Selection
Step 2 - Variable Selection
Step 3 - Clipping, Projection, and Resampling
Step 4 - DSS Output Selection
