A free form bathymetry uses the following keywords:

• COMMENT_HEADER - a optional comment line describing the bathymetry;
• COMMENT_DLX - a optional comment line;
• DLX - a array with with IMX elements, containing the length of each reservoier segment, from 1 to IMX;
• COMMENT_ELWS - a optional comment line;
• ELWS - a array with with IMX elements, containing the inicial surface elevation at each reservoier segment, from 1 to IMX;
• COMMENT_EPHI0 - aCOMMENT_FRIC
• EPHI0 - a array with with IMX elements, Angle/Segment orientation, from 1 to IMX;
• COMMENT_FRIC - a optional comment line;
• FRIC - a array with with IMX elements, containing the Bottom Friction, from 1 to IMX;
• COMMENT_H - a optional comment line;
• H - a array with with KMX elements, Dz/Layer thickness, from 1 (surface) to KMX (bottom);
• COMMENT_SEGMENT - a optional comment line;
• <Segments>...</Segments> - block of data with IMX raws and 4 columns. The first column specifies the segment it refers to, the second column contains the width of the surface layer, the third column contains the bottom width and the forth column specifies the bottom layer. If the last 3 columns are zero it means it is the extremity of a branch.
