BlueM.Opt | Usage | Development

BlueM.Opt input files: MOD · OPT · OBF · CON

---

This file defines the model parameters. They are derived from the optimization parameters and written to the input files of the simulation model (the dataset). Each line corresponds to one model parameter.

The file must have the same filename as the rest of the dataset's files but have the file extension .MOD, and be located in the same directory as the rest of the dataset.

Example for auto-calibration of a rainfall-runoff model with runoff-coefficient and retention constant for two catchments:

Description

Parameter	Description
OptParameter	Name of the optimization parameter from which this model parameter is derived.
Name	Arbitrary name of the model parameter
Unit (optional)	Unit of the parameter value
File	File extension of the model input file in which the model parameter is located. (E.g. for BlueM.Sim: EZG, TRS, TAL, BOF, BOA, BOD, etc.)
Element (optional)	Name of the element associated with the model parameter.
Line	Line number at which the parameter is located within the model input file.
from & to	Column numbers between which the model parameter is defined within the model input file.
Factor	Factor with which the optimization parameter value should be multiplied to obtain the model parameter value.

The width of the columns can be adjusted if necessary, but the column separators (|) must be preserved!

An asterisk (*) at the beginning of the line causes the line to be ignored.
