Spatial Rain Source Data Fields (InfoWorks)

Spatial Rain Sources are used to define the rainfall sources that will be applied during simulation as well as to set their priority.

Note: To view all data relating to this object, use the Object Properties Window. These data fields are read-only in ICMLive Operator Client. Network objects are configured in InfoWorks ICM Ultimate and ICMLive Configuration Manager. Please refer to the InfoWorks ICM help for more details.

The following describes all the data which can be used to define a Spatial Rain Source.

Fields that are common to the majority of objects can be found in the Common Fields topic.

Type of source. Available sources are:

Note: The Spatial TSDB observed and Spatial TSDB forecast options are deprecated but retained for compatibility.

Stream or category

For raingauge polygons, this is a category name (which may be blank).

For Spatial time series data source types, this is the name of the stream within the spatial TSD/TSDB.

The source comprises all the rainfall TVD connectors that have that name in their category field. The latter allows users to divide the raingauges into multiple groups (e.g. if some are polled more frequently or are more reliable than others).

Priority

Source priority.

Note: The priority set here overrides the settings entered in the Schedule Hydraulic Run View.

Defines the order in which ICMLive Operator Client applies the rainfall sources for the time window specified in the Start hours relative to origin and/or the End hours relative to origin fields.

priority

Long Integer 0 0

Start seconds relative to origin

The number of seconds, relative to the forecast origin time, at which to start using the source. If blank, the start of the simulation will be used.

Negative values are before the forecast origin, positive values are after.

Note: The value set here will still be applied when using Historic mode on the TSD Options Dialog.

Configuration of time windows for Spatial Rain Sources is not recommended when using Historic mode.

start_time

Double 0

End seconds relative to origin

The number of seconds, relative to the forecast origin time, at which to stop using the source. If blank, the end of the simulation will be used.

Negative values are before the forecast origin, positive values are after.

Note: The value set here will still be applied when using Historic mode on the TSD Options Dialog.

Configuration of time windows for Spatial Rain Sources is not recommended when using Historic mode.
