Abstract
The purpose of this article is to describe the application of a geographic information system (GIS) for a semi-distributed rainfall-runoff model with special attention to the soil moisture accounting procedure. In addition to the nonuniformity of the input rainfall data over the study area, the model also includes numerous variables and parameters, each derived from a different source and having a different spatial variability. The model utilized the overlay and matrix analysis features of the GIS to account for the variability in time and space of the input data and the watershed characteristics. -from Author
