The Stream Alignment layer is available in the Setup module once a stream alignment has been defined for a watershed and the stream alignment is displayed in the Setup map window. This layer is also available in the Modeling module when a forecast is open. The stream alignment layer has sub-layers (Stream Junctions, Streams, and Stream Nodes), and expanding the layer node in the Map Layers editor displays its sub-layers.
