So RAS plots your XS’s correctly, but doesn’t have downstream reach
lengths? How do these reaches plot longitudinally? That might shed some
light on whether or not RAS “knows” the distance between XS’s.
It’s lame that RAS doesn;t automatically calculate the reach lengths, but
it would not know how to calculate the ROB and LOB distances without more
information from you.

I suggest everyone on this string email HEC to complain about this bug:
http://www.hec.usace.army.mil/software/hec-ras/bug_report.aspx

The only way around this I fear is to bring all of this into GIS than back
into RAS using GeoRAS. Or maybe you can just use GeoRAS to calculate all of
the downstream lengths for you and then paste them back into this empty
table.

1. Export your centerline and XS’s into shapefiles using RAS MApper (In
RAS)
2. Open ArcMap with GeoRAS installed and create a new project (save new
map, create empty centerline and cross section and flow lines shapefiles=
)
3. Start an editing session for these empty shapefiles
4. Bring in the exported XSs and centerline from RASMapper
5. Select (highlight) first the XS’s, Copy, then Paste (using Edit menu
on top bar) into the RAS XS Cultines shapefile. This will populate them.=
Do
the same for the Centerline.
6. Create and draw the overbank flow lines (copying the river centerline=
)
7. Populate the Centerline stationing and XS stationing data
8. Export then import into RAS (Geometry, Import, GIS)
9. Copy and paste Station and Elevation data into each XS (?!?!?!)

That last step is a doozy. You might avoid this by conducting all of the
steps up to 7, then copy the XS downstream and LOB/ROB reach length data
from the attributes table and paste it into the empty RAS table you show
here.

Hi Everyone!

I'd like to ask about this problem that I encountered. I kinda =
have a similar issue with the original author. However in my case, the cros=
s sections (survey data in CSV file format) appear the way I expect them to=
be since they have georeference data (northings, eastings, elevation). Thi=
s was verified when I imported the river network centerlines that I digitiz=

(i.e. adding XS by interpolation), I wasn't able to do so because it a=
ppears that the table for downstream reach lengths doesn't have values =
for LOB, Main Channel, ROB.

Doesn't RAS compute these values? If not, how can I determine t=
hose values?=20

Also, is there a way I can possibly fix this problem without resorting =
to the process of creating XS in GIS?

I hope someone can shed some me some light. I'm stuck with this=
issue.

Thank you very much!

“I have also seen when manually adding xs (with no GIS data), that they all get placed over one small point in the geometry and need to be manually moved to see them.”

That is exactly what’s happening with me.

I decided to go back to HEC GeoRAS and import XS cutlines and downstream reach lengths, etc. via the GIS import option in HEC RAS. Then I went back in and populated the station and elevation data individually in RAS. A real pain.

I started with XYZ data from a survey but didn’t have the points on perfectly straight cross sections. So, I did some work in GIS to essentially project those points perpendicularly on to straight XS cutlines I drew. Then used ArcMap’s routing tools to assign stationing.

There has to be a more straightforward way to created geometry from a survey! I guess doing a better job at staying on a line when conducting the survey and importing via CSV with XYZ data…
