Saving Calibration Data from SWMM 5

SWMM 5 Calibration Files

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
