There is a few articles on the subject but in most cases they use some sort of actual data, and was just wondering if you could simulate flow velocity purely though GIS, and if so how?
If there are any links or videos to show how to do this that would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Ali,
It depends on the level of resolution you need, and the assumptions you are prepared to make. Have a look at:
Schulze, K., Hunger, M. & Döll, P. Advances in Geosciences Simulating river flow velocity on global scale. Adv. Geosci. 5, 133–136 (2005).
They provide a quite straight forward approach that a number of my colleagues have used successfully for global and regional scale simulations.
