Step 1: defining the weather

Press Next to proceed to the Weather panel, here the user can define rainfall and evaporation input. Change all numbers and the according to this picture: File:RFO Tutorial Weather.png

By this setting you have defined a rainfall event:

  1. Of two peaks in 120 minutes
  2. With a total rainfall amount of 100mm
  3. With a dry period after rainfall of 120 minutes, so a total simulation time of 4 hours

Reference evapotranspiration will be assumed on 1.5mm/day

Step 2: defining the water system

Step 2.1: adding water level areas

Press Select File, browse to the file: waterlevelareas.geojson. Set the following:

  1. Set name based on attribute, and select the NAME attribute from the geojson file.
  2. Import the OUTLET attribute and assign it to the OUTLET key. Here a pump capacity (m3/s) is specified. In water areas with the pump capacity defined, water will be extracted with the pump capacity. Extracted water via the pump is assumed to be discharging outside the project domain.
  3. Import the WATER_LEVEL attribute and assign it to the WATER_LEVEL key. Here the initial water level in the water area is defined in m + reference (being NAP in the Netherlands)
