Abstract
Compared with the traditional lumped hydrological models, distributed hydrological model, considering the effects of the uneven spatial distribution of watershed land surface on the hydrological cycle, has the characteristic of physical mechanism. Seeing from overall structure, there are two types of distributed hydrological model, which are runoff and convergence. The establishment of convergence network is on the basis of calculating reservoir routing convergence, at present, converged networks are constructed on the grounds of DEM, the resolution of DEM directly affects the result of convergence network construction, for now, due to confidentiality rules, it is very difficult to obtain high-resolution DEM. With the development of GIS and RS, it is more convenient to acquire data from distributed hydrological model, which has been developing rapidly. SRTM is completed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), National Image Mapping Agency (NIMA) and the German and Italian space agencies. The current publicly available data resolution is 3 arc seconds (1 / 1200 of longitude and latitude), and its length is equivalent to 90 meters. The publication of this data set is an important breakthrough in geographical science and application, which has important application value. However, because of the limitations on using radar technology to obtain surface elevation data, there are many problems in the original SRTM DEM data, such as missing more regional data, existing many abnormal points, and so on. This article, which takes Xue Ye reservoir area as example, studies the methods of processing SRTM data and obtained high-resolution DEM data of the region.
