Abstract:Coupling hydrological modelling systems (HMS) with a geographic information system (GIS) can significantly enhance hydrological research and expand its applications. The calculation for HMS requires geographic information data; however, the current GIS data structure is not equipped to support the object-oriented hydrological modelling. Due to different objectives and design concepts, the differences between HMS and GIS have been profound, especially in their data structures from the perspective of object-orie… Show more
