WMS:What's new in WMS version 8.4

What's new in WMS 8.4

• Updated to be compatible with the latest version of GSSHA. New tutorials are available for use with WMS.

• Integration with FHWA's HY-8 and Hydraulic Toolbox software.

• HY-8 modeling wizard: Allows you to design or analyze culverts using the linkage between WMS, HY-8, and the Hydraulic Toolbox.

• Integration of the Time Series Editor with WMS. This tool allows you to find and download data from the internet and to modify existing time series data.

• New method of computing Flow Directions/Accumulations for basin delineation using TauDEM, allowing for multiprocessor computation of Flow Directions and accumulations.

• Full compatibility with 64-bit computers, allowing for faster processing and the ability to process larger datasets than ever before.

Distinguish Data/Model/Solution in GSSHA project explorer. 1) Use a different color scheme, 2) Separate the sections out, and 3) Put a symbol M for models as we have S for solutions

If groundwater head and aquifer bottom is available in the model, display the following in the Smooth stream arcs dialog and allow user to edit all of these

Add the new Tc method to MODRAT

In Hydrologic Modeling wizard, the coordinates for project boundary are not defaulted properly. Dr Nelson thinks it is good idea to default them to 0

In the same dialog of the modeling wizard, if you change the project coordinates, it looks like WMS tries to transform the coordinates in the project bound coordinates list also causing WMS to crash

While saving GSSHA project, the .cmt file had a soil type index map assigned to several processes even though those processes were not turned on. The processes that were not turned on include evapotranspiration, soil erosion, and possibly others. GSSHA r

In GSSHA Job Control/Storm-tile drain Edit parameter button, change the text to "Allow GSSHA to redistribute Superlink Vertices"

Super link/ Super Junction numbering is still not working. If you create the superlinks and turn the Storm/Tile Drain option on Job control, the numbering is not correct. Turning the Storm/Tile Drain option on Job control and then creating the arcs seemed

In Job Control/Edit parameters for storm/tile drains, put an option to select a method that specifies how water gets into the drains. The default option should be Cook Method (need to make sure if the name is correct) and next option should be Drain Mod M

Be able to specify a depression mask for running cleandam so you don’t change areas for specified zones

Change the user interface to turn this option on, specify the XY boundary condition files, and specify the larger GSSHA model so the mask can be written to this location

Change the user interface to turn this option on for the larger model and to specify the small GSSHA model so the mask can be used in running the simulation.

Read and write the project file cards and data files required to implement this option

Read and write DEMs as GeoTIFF files

Create a display option to display the wetland parameters from the GSSHA polygon attributes dialog if this display option is selected
