A C++ and Python tool to detect and interpolate discontinuities in stream networks caused by reservoirs, compatible with TopoToolbox.
When deriving stream networks from DEMs in TopoToolbox, reservoirs cause discontinuities in the drainage network. The flat water surface has no topographic gradient, so flow direction algorithms fail to route streams through these areas.
ReservoirBridge automatically:
- Detects gaps in the stream network
- Interpolates missing segments across reservoir areas
- Exports corrected coordinates back to MATLAB/Python (TopoToolbox)
- C++ (core algorithm)
- Python (TopoToolbox integration via pytopotoolbox)
