Meeting Notes 9_15_2023

We can still get later data 2022, start later than 1998? Stats on rainfall, records by year, good counter for frequency, could also do Is there a good cutoff year where "good data" starts?

Rainfall: will be run event-by-event. Tested with 2022 data, 24 hour min event time and 0.1 threshhold worked best. 0.01 results in a bunch of long events (200+ hours) 0.1 inches in what kind of time period? Over 24 hours? I have a pretty good idea for how to design this... Python script from someone who had a hand in NetStorm. Caleb will find it and send to us. Also, Anne will send screenshots from the PC SWMM rainfall runs she did.

Find a threshhold that results in roughly 24 hour events (on average).

At least 24 hours of dry weather between each event? Otherwise continue the same rainfall event.

Goal is to have separate rainfall files in the folder. How should we name them? What meta data available? Name them with the four cols (event #, datetime, duration, amount).

How many wind directions per subcatchment?

Try a smaller (narrower) plume and see how it moves. Decrease std dev.

SQLite was only used for managing user inputs. All outputs were stored in files only (I think?) Limit to signal file based on how many subcatchments, getting too big. Is txt file required or is there another format that chama can accept? Is it chama or is it PySWMM that's doing the limit? Signal file could be stored in HDF5, they did it in their other projects. We'll look into it.
