Sewer Inlet Catchment Delineatoin

[BrianJeffries]

Hello, I am trying to use arcmap and the hydrology or hydro tools to delineate the catchment for a single sewer inlet location. I have 3 ft by 3 ft DEM data and a single vector point dataset. I'm currently using the Fill and Flor Direction Tools and then the Watershed tool to get the catchment area. However, I am not getting good results and I am not sure these tools were designed to be used on such a small scale.

I have attached a picture of one of my test runs. I'm not sure why the delineated watershed stops where it does instead of continuing to go up, since the flow direction value of 4 should be flowing down. (relative to the picture.)

If anyone has done something similar to this or has any suggestions It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

To get appropriate results, you probably need to specify the raster environment -- especially if you are providing vector data (points) that are going to be rasterized on the fly when you run the Watershed tool.

The relevant environments include:

Extent  (must include the area you want to delineate)
Snap Raster
Cell Size

Hope this helps.
