Hydrological Analysis in QGIS

This online course focuses on hydrological analysis within QGIS, providing participants with a comprehensive understanding of the tools available for such studies. It delves into various processing provider plugins, including those from GRASS, SAGA, WhiteboxTools, and PCRaster, alongside other specialized plugins designed for hydrological applications. The curriculum emphasizes practical application, ensuring attendees gain hands-on experience with these powerful open-source tools.

The interactive sessions cover essential practical exercises, such as deriving streams and catchments from digital elevation models. Participants also learn to calculate crucial morphometric parameters, including drainage density, concentration time, and hypsometric curves. These exercises are designed to build a solid foundation in applying geospatial techniques to hydrological challenges.

By completing this workshop, attendees develop a robust understanding of how to leverage QGIS for detailed hydrological analysis. This enables them to confidently apply these advanced techniques to their own research projects and professional endeavors, enhancing their capabilities in environmental and water resource management.
