The LIMPOPO River Basin data repository in Dataverse is designed to facilitate the interoperability of diverse data sources created to support the management and conservation efforts in the Limpopo River Basin. This repository catalogs various datasets developed by the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) as part of the CGIAR Digital Innovation Initiative's project on developing a prototype digital twin for the basin.

Channel network of SWAT model for Limpopo River Basin
Jul 12, 2024
Thilina Madushanka, 2024, "Channel network of SWAT model for Limpopo River Basin", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WAVI18, Harvard Dataverse, V2
The development of a channel network is a crucial part of watershed delineation. It involves identifying the streams and rivers within a watershed based on terrain data. This process uses the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) to simulate the flow of water across the landscape, determining where streams are likely to form.
