When you reproject a raster map to a new location does it
automatically re-sample it to the regions resolution. I have a 10x10
meter grid in albers equal area projection. I have reprojected it
into UTM zone 17 res=50. This is a base flow index map bfi. Does
grass resample the map to 50x50m?
The problem is this:
I have an average runoff value (arv) in m/s (converted from mm/day
into m/s by dividing by 86,400s*1000mm).
flow accumulation grid produced by r.terraflow (which was 30x30m
resampled to 50x50m).
flow accumulation * 250 (to get square meters (50x50))
bfi*arv*flow accumulation (sqm)
to get discharge in cms
I converted this to cfs (multiplied by 35.314454)
the resulting map is discharge in cfs
The estimate for discharge is ~3x what the long term average is at
usgs gauging stations along the rivers of interest (point layer to
identify where they are located). The only thing that I have been
able to think of at this point is that there is a resampling step I am
missing because 10x10=100 and 50x50=250. which would account for
almost the 3x discrepancy.
If you need anymore information please don't hesitate to ask. I
appreciate any and all help.
