In the Setup Tab, you specify the input data required by the model - including the size of the model and the numerical grid. However, most of the setup data is independent of the model extent and grid. When you pre-process you model set up, MIKE SHE’s pre-processor program scans through your model set up and interpolates all spatial data to the specified model grid. This interpolated set up data is stored in a .fif file, which is read during the simulation by the MIKE SHE engine. However, the pre-processed data does not include any time information. All time series information must be interpolated dynamically during the run because MIKE SHE dynamically changes the time step during the simulation in response to stresses on the system.
The Preprocessed Data Tab is used to display the pre-processed data.
Before you run your simulation, you should carefully check the preprocessed data for errors. Errors found in the preprocessed data are typically related to incorrectly specified parameters, file names, etc. in the Setup Tab.
The Preprocessed Tab includes a data tree with two items:
