Description:

This tutorial reviews some of the screens, icons, and basic functions of the SDMProjectBuilder (SDMPB) and explains how one uses SDMPB output to populate the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) input files for nutrient fate and transport modeling in the Salt River Basin. It demonstrates how to choose and delineate a HUC-8 which includes the Salt River Basin, collect environmental data used in watershed modeling, address isolated subwatersheds which are disconnected from the waterbody network, modify a local data file to define an outlet point within a HUC-8, and develop input files necessary to execute SWAT successfully.
