ArcSWAT for ArcGIS Pro

[Yong Tian]

I tried ArcSWAT for ArcGIS Pro by following a SWAT youtube video. After completing the simulation, Run SWAT option is not enabled. Could someone advise where I should check for mistake?

It is not clear what you mean. Have you started the SWAT Editor? Have
you saved the SWAT inputs?

Hi: Chris,

Sorry about the unclear message. Let me try here again. I tried to learn how to run ArcSWAT for ArcGIS Pro by using the provided example dataset Robit_data. By following a series of videos:

Video 1: https://youtu.be/dBARtcejaPM?si=PAdi4ozhO7pfO1ar

Video 2: https://youtu.be/MqWyJ67gnr0?si=ydlO5IMbYnLAVN9-

and so on

I had no problem with setting up the Delineate Watershed, But I had many problems with the soil look up file. After clicking read, it requested to select soil look up file, I selected "use csv file", then followed by choosing "Robit Soil.txt". It complained by an error message below

then another error message below

Then the system went through as long as we selected the Statsgo soil radio button. If we selected the usersoil radio button, then the system crashes.

With the above settings, we started the SWAT editor and inputted weather generator, rainfall data and temperature data, then I wrote to SWAT database tables. I selected three tables: configuration file, Weather generator, and HRU drainage data only. But if I wrote to soil data table it came up with error message below

I clicked ok, it showed "Building soil Table..." for a long time, never complete. I terminated it.

Then, I continued to edit the swat input option by re-write to SWAT input files.

After completed thi step, the Run SWAT drop down manu are unactivated. I can not run the model.

Could you advise where might cause the problem?

Regards,

Yong

Hi.

You can try doing questions to the ChatGPT. I had had some problems after installation of the ArcGIS Pro and the ArcSWAT3. And I could solve them with ChatGPT help. One of the problems was incompatibility between the ArcSWAT and the ArcGIS Pro versions. 

Good lucky.

Hi. You need to Select all + Create tables. 

[Chris George]

I don't know what you did but there is little point in following a video
describing QSWAT+ to learn how to run ArcSWAT: the + version has a
distinctly different interface in some parts. You should follow the
QSWAT manual.
