The unit is number of grid cells. A reasonable value depends on your question and the required detail. It helps often to first calculate flow accumulation, then visually inspect the result to figure out a reasonable value, or look where ground control points are located. > > In my case, i 'm using SRTM 90m as DEM raster input. > > > 2/According to you, what is the better tool between r.watershed or Taudem > "StreamReach and watershed" ? I could not find "StreamReach and watershed" in the TauDEM documentation on command line functions[0]. I did find something in the online documentation. It seems to me that the equivalent of Taudem's "StreamReach and watershed" is r.stream.extract followed by r.stream.order. I would expect the results to be nearly identical if the input data are the same. Note that TauDEM's "StreamReach and watershed" can not use the output of r.watershed as input, but r.stream.extract can use pretty much any input, also data generated with TauDEM.
