Data For "Fractal Analysis Of Urban Catchments And Their Representation In Semi-Distributed Models: Imperviousness And Sewer System"

The data set corresponds the data used in the paper : “Fractal analysis of urban catchments and their representation in semi-distributed models: imperviousness and sewer system”, published in 2017 in the Journal “Hydrology and Earth System Sciences” (http://www.hydrol-earth-syst-sci.net/). More precisely it corresponds to the matrices that are used in the fractal and multi-fractal analysis of the ten urban areas investigated in the paper. For each catchment, it is organised as follow: - catchment_name_conduit.asc : the matrix describing the sewer system. - catchment_name_OSM.asc : the matrix describing the impervious areas (roads and buildings) obtained via Open Street Map (www.openstreetmap.org) - catchment_name_OSM_house_only.asc : the matrix describing the “building” areas obtained via Open Street Map (www.openstreetmap.org) - catchment_name_imperviousness.asc : the matrix describing the representation of imperviousness in operational semi-distributed models. More details can be found in the paper.
