EAMS-Moscow
Moscow is the environmental analysis utility for EAMS. It
has the ability to import a variety of file formats, remove data file artifacts
and do hydrologic and erosion data analysis. Moscow integrates a range of
computer packages (including SIBERIA the landfrom evolution code) that have been developed during the 1980's and 90's for
the analysis of the hydrology and erosion of landforms using digital terrain
maps.
Moscow Capabilities
- Import landform data from a variety of file formats in both gridded
and ungridded formats and convert them into the gridded format required
- Automated removal of artifacts from the gridded digital terrain map
- Easy access to a comprehensive database of runoff and erosion characteristics
- Fast calculation of hydrology and erosion response of the landform
for design lifetimes ranging from 1 to 1000's of years
- Ability to analysis landforms with spatially varying runoff and erosion
properties (in conjunction with EAMS-Viewer)
- Ability to analyse landforms with contour banks
- Ability to identify areas at risk of gully erosion
- Integrated on-line help using Netscape, Internet Explorer, Firefix or Safari.
- Standard interface and help system across all platforms
Moscow Components
Moscow integrates proven capabilities from a variety of
computer packages including
- DISTFW: A grid based kinematic wave rainfall-runoff model
- SIBERIA: A grid based erosion model capable of simulating the evolution
of landforms in response to erosion
- NLFIT: Model calibration and prediction uncertainty suite
EAMS-Moscow has been developed by a team headed by Associate Professor
Garry Willgoose, Department of Civil, Surveying and Environmental Engineering,
The University of Newcastle as part of the EAMS Mine Rehabilitation Design
