![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Coding of watershed and river hierarchy to support GIS-based hydrological analyses at different scales Coding of watershed and river hierarchy to support GIS-based hydrological analyses at different scales](/preview/png/508335.png)
A procedure is presented to automatically assign a modified Pfafstetter code to a stream network and its associated watersheds. The first step is to build a topological network according to the object-oriented Arc Hydro framework definition in ArcGIS. These network relations are then mapped into a code that fully represents the stream hierarchy of a basin in a single attribute. Its use does not depend on ArcGIS object orientation and facilitates simple hierarchical aggregation and querying using only the attribute tables of shapefile versions of the stream network and watershed datasets. The code was implemented for the whole of Austria to support the flexible presentation and user-defined aggregation of water balance results in the digital version of the Hydrological Atlas of Austria.
