Andrea,
Now that I think about it harder, the strategy I gave you was more of a flood plane solution I guess. In order to calculate slope and a descending path you will need more of a mesh object or scene graph class. Once it was in a structure like that you could traverse the mesh and run tests on the edge of each triangulated face.

Subject: [OpenMap Users] watershed area
Hi Don,
The algorithms to calculate watershed area are based on elevation data. I
would need a grid of elevation data to perform slope, flow paths and
draining area calculations.
Cheers,
Andrea

Hi Andrea,
What's your criteria for designating a watershed area based on
elevation data?
Just so you know, the TerrainLayer uses DTED data instead of DEM, but
that should be OK, too.
