StateDMI

The StateDMI provides the following assistance to the StateMod Model:

  • Creates a river network (*.rin) file that identifies relative location (upstream or downstream) of nodes in a model network.
  • Creates a river station (*.ris) file that describes the names and locations of nodes where baseflows are known.
  • Creates a stream estimate station coefficient data (*.rib) file with proration coefficients to calculate baseflows for nodes where baseflows are not known.
  • Creates a reservoir structure (*.res) file that describes the physical properties of each reservoir in the system.
  • Creates a reservoir rights (*.rer) file that contains data associated with reservoir storage rights.
  • Creates an instream flow structure (*.ifs) file that describes the physical properties of each instream flow in the system.
  • Creates an instream flow rights (*.ifr) file that contains data associated with instream flow water rights.
  • Create an instream flow demand (*.ifa) file that contains annual instream flow demands (12 monthly values) for each instream flow.
  • Creates a well structure (*.wes) file that describes the physical properties of each well in the system.
  • Creates a well rights (*.wer) file that contains data associated with ground water rights.
  • Create a well demand (*.wem) file that contains demands for well structures.
  • Creates a direct diversion structure (*.dds) file that describes the physical properties of each direct diversion in the system.
  • Creates a direct diversion rights (*.ddr) file that contains data associated with diversion water rights.
  • Creates an historic diversion (*.ddh) file by extracting diversion data from the CDSS database.
  • Fills missing historic diversion data from user supplied information.
  • Calculates the average system efficiency for irrigation structures based on historic diversion data and irrigation water requirement data provided by the CU model, StateCU (see below).
  • Creates a demand (*.ddm) file based on calculated or user supplied efficiency data and farm irrigation water requirement data provided by the CU model, StateCU (see below).
  • Extracts irrigated acreage and crop mix (*.cds) data from the CDSS database.
