Topological Relationship-Based Flow Direction Modeling: Stream Burning and Depression Filling

This is the second part of a two-part study of building a comprehensive river network over any mesh provided. This paper introduces a workflow that consist of (a) a topological relationship-based hybrid breaching-filling method to conduct stream burning for the river network and (b) a modified depression removal method for rivers and hillslopes.
