Create a network of polyline from a flow accumulation raster

JosselineLou

Hello, I have a problem,
I've created a flow accumulation raster from a flow direction raster (created from an elevation raster).
But now I need to create a polyline feature of the channels but the Stream to Feature tools doesn't crash as I tried to process it.
I'm kind of stuck here, thanks in advance,

Joss

Try using the raster calculator with a conditional statement and a threshold of accumulation. THis is outlined in the help under Hydrologic analysis sample applications, step 5-6.

And as an additional tip when it comes to extracting stream lines from dem's...
I always create a curvature surface and use that as a weighting into the flow accumulation step.
Because of the math of the curvature function, upwardly concave areas (like a stream) are negative,
so invert the curvature output first, (X -1) so that +ve values are associated with upwardly concave areas
and -ve values indicate the top of the hill (for example).

This idea comes from a paper by Tarboten & Ames from about 1992.

Otherwise follow the steps in the hydrology section of the help files as suggested by Jim.

Cheers,
Neil

Thanks, the Raster Calculator worked like a charm !

Thank you for your answer first,
but as I'm french, I didn't really understood, do you mean using the Curvature tool in 3D Analyst ?
What are +ve and -ve values ?
Thanks

The Arc Hydro tools will create a network of polylines for the drainage lines (polylines) in a watershed.
