Topic: There are a lot of very good methods for importing different types of Calibration data into InfoSWMM, H20MAP SWMM and SWMM 5 but there is not a lot of good methods for generating this data. I have used a few modified routines in the Delphi Code of SWMM 5 to generate a calibration file in either Elapsed Time or as a Date/Time for 4 Node data types, 4 Link data types and 4 Subcatchment data types. I find it useful for testing the different SWMM 5 routing options and showing differences between different SWMM 5 versions. The code works with any SWMM 5 binary output file.
Steps for making calibration files from the SWMM 5.
Step 1. Run the model and graph at least one Object class such as Nodes, Links or Subcatchments
Step 2: Use the Command Copy To to bring up the Saving Selection Dialog
Step 3. Select the type of Calibration File you want based on the Selection List
Step 4: Go to the Calibration Data Selection Menu
Step 5: Select the correct type of Calibration Data
Step 6: Click on the Edit Button and paste the data you saved to the clipboard into the Text Box
Step 7: Graph with the Calibration Data
Step 8: Graph with the Calibration Data in Date/Time Format
Step 9: Graph with the Calibration Data in Date/Time Format
