How To Generate Manning Coefficients

Manning coefficients must be provided in runoff data file. Options:

  • Use a constant value
  • Define a Manning's grid: One possible option is to associate Manning with land use classes (shape file). In this case can use MOHID GIS going to menu [Tools]->[Shape to Grid Data] and provide: i) the grid (model grid), ii) the land use shape file and iii) the corespondence between land use codes and Manning.
