Next, we are going to look at the Depression Drainage Area tool which delineates the drainage area or area contributing to each depression, which were calculated using the Depression Identification tool.

Tool Summary

Inputs:

Depressions feature class (Depressions + inHUC) (Required)
Unfilled DEM (NewDEM + inHUC) (Required)

Outputs:

Depression Drainage Area polygons (Depress_Wsheds + inHUC)

Note 1: Unlike most of the other tools, D8 flow direction values for the Depression Drainage Area tool are derived from an unfilled DEM. This is to prevent upstream depressions from being included in the drainage areas of a lower depression.

Note 2: You should only run this tool after a manual review of the "Depression" feature class, where false or inaccurate depressions should be manually deleted.

Depression Drainage Area Polygon Attributes:

Attributes	Description
Depress_ID	Unique ID for each depression; can be used as join field with Potholes layer
DrainageHA	Drainage area (in hectares) to each unique depression

Options:

You can select individual depressions in the Depression Polygon Feature Class and run the tool only on those selected.
In addition, you can also make a selection in the attribute table based on MaxDepthCM or PctHydric.
