Simulated Maximum Flood Extent

This dataset is derived by performing Flood2D-GPU on ORNL's SUMMIT supercomputer. <br>The observed high water mark data that is used to compared our simulated dataset can be found from the following study:<br>Watson, K. M., Harwell, G. R., Wallace, D. S., Welborn, T. L., Stengel, V. G., and J. S. McDowell (2018), Characterization of peak streamflows and flood inundation of selected areas in southeastern Texas and southwestern Louisiana from the August and September 2017 flood resulting from Hurricane Harvey: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2018–5070, 44 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20185070.<br><br>The GIS dataset can be downloaded at the URL:https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20185070 .
