Introduction
Show More Laat minder zienThis workshop has been made for the QGIS User Conference 2026 in Laax, Switzerland.
We will first explore the new native QGIS tools for flow direction visualisation, stream extraction and catchment delineation. These tools will be available in QGIS 4.4 and can be optionally installed from the nightly built with the OSGeo4W installer.
Next, we will explore the diverse range of tools available in QGIS for conducting comprehensive hydrological analysis. Participants will gain hands-on experience with tools from GRASS, WhiteboxTools, and PCRaster processing provider plugins, as well as other specialized plugins designed for hydrological studies.
Our interactive session will cover practical exercises on deriving streams and catchments, and calculating essential morphometric parameters such as drainage density and concentration time. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a solid understanding of how to leverage QGIS for hydrological analysis, enabling them to apply these techniques to their own projects and research.
This video provides an overview of the hydrological tools available in QGIS:

During the workshop you'll be introduced to PCRaster through the PCRaster Tools plugin. Next, we'll automate work flows using the QGIS graphical modeller, followed by developing PCRaster Python scripts. Finally, you'll develop a spatial dynamic model.
