I am trying to convert raster layers into DSS files to be used in the HEC-HMS models. The tool in arcHydro converts time series layres into DSS files, not raster layers.

Is there a program or method to convert from raster to DSS?

Thank you.

I've had success using DSS utilities that I found via http://www.hec.usace.army.mil/software/hec-dss/hecdss-commandpromptutility-intro.htm. However, I was automating the import of rain data into DSS. For example, the DSSTS (time series) tool worked well once I understood it. I was able to create a batch and python code to do all I wanted.

Maybe they have a tool like that to do what you want.

You also might want to look into Geo-HMS to see if it has tools to do what you want to do. This works inside ArcMap (though I don't know if they've updated to 10 yet).

Hi,

I am trying to import TimeSeries data from DSS to GDB. It works fine, but I would like to import data such STORAGE which is undefined in ApUtilities Framwork Config XML. I added STORAGE variable and connected UNITS to XML. Tool works, but output is empty. Please, do You have any experience with importing/exporting undefined. Is possible to do it so simply?

I am using ArcGIS 10.2.1 with lastest ArcHydro, GeoHMS and HMS.

I inserted that: "<Variable Name="STORAGE" CPART="STORAGE" DTYPE="INST-VAL" />" and "<Unit Name="1000 m3" DSSUnit="1000 M3" />"

Thank You for Answer!

Sikanar,

I have not converted raster data to dss before, so I don't think I can help you. Sorry.

Hi Mark,

If you can tell me how to create SHG grid for other projection rather than Albers Equal Area Conic that would be really helpful.
