Delimitación hidrográfica y caracterización morfométrico de la cuenca del rio Metica

Resumen

This research aims to demonstrate the importance of deepening water simulations as a source of information to aid decision-making; watersheds are not only drainage areas of our community, but are also necessary to sustain animal and plant life. These simulations provide us with data on the basins of how to take advantage of this water resource, also the use of the exploitation of construction materials and also foresee possible catastrophes of floods or droughts. For the elaboration of this morphometric analysis and delimitation of the Guatiquia river basin located in the city of Villavicencio Meta, we used tools such as GIS ArcGIS Pro, QGis 2.6.1 Brighton, QGis 2.18 Las Palmas and Global Mapper, making use of their GRASS and SAGA complements; Softwares that gave us a help which allows us to model hydrographic basins automatically through the surface of a Digital Elevation Model (DEM); making easier the laborious task of delimiting basins in a manual way and much more precise.
