Abstract
Algorithms for calculation direction (FD) and accumulation of runoff (FA) are one of the most widely used software of GIS modules. A both commercial platforms ESRI ArcGIS and IDRISI used in this case study and also the used open source tools such as GRASS GIS or SAGA GIS dispose of such modules. It is expected that the currently established algorithms generate good enough results, so crucial factors for such analyses become quality and resolution of the digital terrain model. Considering HPPS ČR and POVIS systems, which are both provided by Czech Hydrometeorological Institute, these analysis serves only as the basic mechanisms to obtain the complementary informations about the watershed parameters. However, similar analyses serves also as the fundamental basis for more the sophisticated analytical apparatus, which represent currently distributed rainfall-runoff models. This paper focuses on comparing the results of different algorithms FD and FA with the fully distributed rainfall-runoff models MIKE SHE and SIMWE. The pilot area is a Czech Switzerland National Park and various small anthropogenically least affected catchments, such as Jetřichovický potok, Dlouhá and Suchá Běla, Červený potok, Koutský potok. An important factor here is extremely complicated relief NP Czech Switzerland, so it was necessary to use LIDAR DTM, specifically from the project GeNeSIS.
