DESCRIPTION
r.topmodel simulates TOPMODEL which is a physically based hydrologic model. Note: (i) means input; (o) means output; (o/i) means input or output The -i flag indicates that input data are given for (o/i). Without this flag, all inputs (i) and intermediate outputs (o/i) should be given. For example, [belevation] map will be created from [elevation] and [basin] in every run. However, given the same [elevation] and [basin], [belevation] output will be the same all the time, so r.topmodel can directly take [belevation] as an input with this flag to save time. Selected Parameters: depressionless map is created as follows: r.fill.dir input=elevation elev=depressionless dir=direction type=grass This option can be omitted if [elevation] map is already depressionless. belevation map is created from [elevation] with [basin] mask applied: r.mapcalc "belevation = if(basin == 0 || isnull(basin), null(), elevation)" topidx map is created as follows: r.topidx input=elevation output=topidx Qobs Compare simulated flows with observed flows and calculate model efficiency.
