Production Grade Network Tools Waterfall

[joewheaton]

@philipbaileynar started this flowchart to map out the dependencies of our various prouction-grade network tools. @joewheaton modified it to try and reflect the distinctions between our channel network models, our single riverscape network model (VBET), and the new class of hybrid channel & riverscape network models (i.e. those that calculate outputs both on channel AGOs (reach segments - aggregated geographic objects) and riverscape IGOs (integrated geographic objects, moving window valley bottoms).

• Everything depends on Riverscapes Context.
• VBET additionally depends on Channel Area and TauDEM
• All hybrid models depend on VBET's riverscape network (specifically DGOs and IGOs)
• GNAT is its own little metric generation engine

Comments, questions, confusion, concerns, etc? FYI @Riverscapes/developers and @Riverscapes/riverscape-analysts?
