Access to existing models in the kootenays

I am helping a community watershed group in the kootenays to develop a hydrological model for their town's drinking water supply watershed to predict stream flow response to land use change (mainly from logging). Its a forested 6.75 km2 watershed in the kootenays, near Ymir, BC. I noticed on the 'Model Coverage' map that there might be a model existing for this area already. The existing model is likely on a larger scale, but I thought I'd reach out anyways to avoid redundant work.

So, are there existing models out there for small (<10 km2) watersheds in the west kootenays region, and would the model developers be willing to share their work with a community watershed group?

Thanks!

Hi Slys. This is a proprietary model, but I'll put in a request to the owners and see if they are willing to share.

Hi jrcraig, any news from the model owners? Thanks!

Sorry, Slys. I had meant to get back to you on this one. I was unable to get the model developers to share this one. Best of luck to you.

You will have to clip the models manually I think, no way around it that a know of.
