Failed to load shared library error solution
A common error when first installing SAGA-GIS and the SCIMAP module is: “Failed to load shared library ‘…saga_vc8/modules/scimap.dll’ (error 126: the specified module could not be found.). The normal reason for this problem is missing…
Economic benefits of diffuse pollution mitigation targeting
A new ESRC research project investigating the economic benefits of diffuse pollution mitigation targeting is using SCIMAP.
SCIMAP in EdenDTC
SCIMAP is being used in the Defra funded River Eden Demonstration Test Catchment (EdenDTC) project. This project is investigating the dynamics of water quality from agricultural land using state of the art, real time, water…
Durham Wildlife Trust using SCIMAP
Durham Wildlife Trust is using SCIMAP to identify areas with high fine sediment pollution risk within the River Wear catchment. The trust exists to protect wildlife and is therefore committed to tackling the problems that…

Is SCIMAP always based on the Topographic Wetness Index?
Within SCIMAP, the hydrological connectivity is based on the ‘Network Index’ (Lane et al. 2004). This index calculates the level of landscape wetness for each point to both generate runoff and for there to be…
EGU2011: Inverse modelling of the risk of diffuse pollution in agricultural catchments
Dave Milledge (1,2), Stuart Lane (1,2), Louise Heathwaite (3), Sim Reaney (1,2) The hydrological and biogeochemical processes that operate in catchments influence the ecological quality of freshwater systems through delivery of fine sediment, solutes and…
