Integration of Geographical Information Science (GIS) Technology in Hydrological Modeling: A Critical Review

Article Preview

Abstract:

Current trends in hydrological modeling depend on spatial datasets, complex computational tasks and representation. As the need for the development of hydrological modeling capabilities have evolved, its integration with geographic information system (GIS) has provided a significant contribution to the efforts of hydrologic models. It serves the role of providing support in data capturing and improving hydrological modeling efforts by giving tools for effective analysis. This integration of GIS technology and hydrological modeling has resulted in great value and presents potential benefits to modelers and engineers. This paper reviewed critically, current trends of GIS technology in hydrological modeling. It also discussed the existing drawbacks as well as reviewed the future trends and prospects of this integration.
