Description Mouton will describe his research into stream prediction. In his study, he examined the effects of digital elevation model (DEM) grid size for stream network predictions in the northwestern United States to test the accuracy of high-resolution LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) digital elevation data. He will describe the elevation data and routing algorithms used. He will also discuss the results of his analyses. His study illustrates the potential of LiDAR to accurately predict perennial...
