Use Greater of NWM and HEC RAS Max Flows for max_flow value in conflation #42

Closed ar-siddiqui closed 4 months ago

Some NWM max flows are too low, for example at reservoirs, HEC RAS might have better max flows for those locations.

A bit ambiguous; do you mean the HEC-RAS model from the MIP?

ar-siddiqui commented 4 months ago

So in conflation parameters we currently get max flows from https://github.com/Dewberry/ripple/wiki/Useful-Data-Sources#nwm-flowlines

These flows are not the most accurate, especially around reservoirs, OWP wants us to also capture the max HEC-RAS flow from the subsetted models. So if a subsetted model has 10 XS, we should look for the max flow from flow file in those 10 XS and use the greater of the max value from NWM and the XS flows

Let me know if it is still not clear.
