Supporting Tools and QA/QC
All preprocess scripts are written with DSM2-Vista. Use the most updated version available at DSM2 Vista GitHub. Ensure relevant environment variables are updated.
Recommended Practices
- Review and Compare CALSIM Outputs
- Use HEC-DSS and DSM2-Vista.
-
Ensure consistency in pathnames, time windows, etc., between comparison scenarios.
-
WRIMS Report Tool
- Useful for comparing CALSIM outputs (e.g., DSM2 inputs in
timeseries\CALSIM\\DV.dss
). - WRIMS Tool Details.
- Compare DSS Tool
- Use the Compare DSS Tool in DSM2-Vista.
- Scripts:
${vista}\bin\compare_dss.bat
or${vista}\bin\compare_dss_files.bat
.
* One good practice is to locate changes first (maybe the big ones), then use compare_dss.bat to specify and illustrate them.
- Net Delta Flow (NDO) Check
- Compare NDO = inflows - outflows - CU for accuracy.
