Example 1
Accessing and post-processing the North American lake-river routing product
To use this notebook walkthrough, BasinMaker needs to be installed in full installation mode. The detailed installation procedure can be found in here.
The following BasinMaker post-processing activities will be demonstrated in this example:
- Download the routing product subregions containing our two example streamflow gauges (BasinMaker not needed).
- Import packages to prepare to run BasinMaker.
- Extract the drainage area for a streamflow gauge.
- Simplify the routing product by removing some small lakes.
- Simplify the routing product by removing river reaches (increasing size of routing subbasins).
