Arc Hydro is a community, data model, set of tools, and workflows to support the GIS side of hydrologic and hydraulic (H&H) analyses. Learn how to apply the Arc Hydro data model while running workflow-driven tools in a watershed modelling application. Starting with a good quality digital elevation model (DEM), you will conduct terrain preprocessing to hydrologically condition the DEM. The next step will involve input into stream drainage network identification, followed by catchment delin...
We are excited to announce that the next Canada Forum will be held during the GoGeomatics Expo in Calgary, from October 28th to 30th. This event will bring together key stakeholders from across Canada’s geospatial sector, including industry leaders, academics, indigenous communities, government representatives, and technologists, to continue vital discussions on advancing geospatial standards, interoperability, and spatial data infrastructure (SDI) in Canada.

The government of Alberta manages the production of riverine flood studies under the provincial Flood Hazard Identification Program, to assist communities in keeping Albertans safe and protecting their properties from floods. Flood maps improve public safety, support emergency management, and help us build safer and more resilient communities. The government of Alberta also manages the production of alluvial fan studies to help Albertans learn about flood risks in the steep terrain of Alberta...
In flood mapping and dam breach analysis, engineers and planners define inundation areas through flow modeling. A crucial input for this analysis is a comprehensive topographic surface of the area of interest and any upstream zones. These areas can span hundreds of kilometers and cover thousands of square kilometers.Previous studies have indicated that low-resolution topography can results in larger inundation areas, greater flow volumes, and faster flood streams. However, a comparison...
Stand Out in a Crowded Market In a world overflowing with information, every company needs a compelling marketing strategy to stand out. It’s not enough to simply analyze and map data—you need to tell its story in a way that truly resonates with people. But let’s face it—translating complex geospatial data into engaging content can be a challenge.

In countries that have very accurate and accessible map records, utility damage events are a rare occurrence. Japan with a one third of the population of the US has less than 200 line strikes per year. We will discuss how creating, sharing, and using accurate maps is critical in reducing damage to buried infrastructure.
With the increasing focus on damage prevention, public safety concerns, and environmental damage due to underground utility strikes, it has become more critical to accuracy locate, store and be able to visualize subsurface utilities. Several key technical details are discussed when implementing a subsurface mapping system from data collection to the use of machine learning for 3D modelling and visualization. The ability to make safe and effective decisions for i...
Reduced snowpack in the Rockies presents a severe drought risk for Southern Alberta. Mountain snowmelt in the Bow and Oldman basins maintains reservoir levels, crop irrigation, municipal and industrial supply, and ecosystem services. As climate and consumption pressures increase, accurate snow water equivalent (SWE) data is crucial for water supply forecasts, which impact allocations and emergency drought measures. Field snowpack monitoring does not provide accu...
