New version of ArcSWAT and SWATeditor available (version 2012.10.15)

[Jaclyn]

Download the latest version of ArcSWAT and SWATeditor from the website at: http://swat.tamu.edu/software/arcswat/

The SWAT2012.exe Revision 627 is packaged with ArcSWAT 2012.10.15.

 

Changes from Version 2012.10.14: 

IMPORTANT: Older SWAT projects created prior to the current ArcSWAT version should run the new “Database Update” utility found under the “Write Input Tables” menu. This utility will update the tables in your SWAT project database (e.g., “gw”, “hru”) to make sure all the correct columns are in the table and assign default values for the new columns. The utility will also copy new parameter “range” tables from the current SWAT2012.mdb distributed with the ArcSWAT to the SWAT2012.mdb database associated with your current ArcSWAT project. You should select all tables when you run the database update.

1. Updated the CROP table to include several new crops in the SWAT2012 database.

2. Modified writing of atmo.atm file to only write the file if average annual value option is chosen. Users can supply their own atmo.atm monthly values by choosing an IATMO value of “1”. In addition, the same deposition values specified in the .BSN file are written as one line for every subbasin in the watershed.

3. The DEM, Land use, and soils raster datasets can now be read in from a file geodatabase.

4. The header line in the .RES files was modified to be compatible with SWAT-CUP.

5. The handling of split sub-landuses during HRU delineation has been modified for the case exempt land uses are specified. In this version, if a parent land use is specified as being “exempt” from the land use threshold, then all sub-land uses will also be exempt.

6. New parameters in the HRU table and .hru files have been added to the interface.

7. New parameters in the BSN table and .bsn file have been added to the interface.

8. The SWAT executable has been updated to version 627.

**Please note, a global WGN database will be available for download soon.**

I am having problems installing the new ArcSWAT 2012.10.16.  I have removed the ArcSWAT 2012.10.15 through the control panel, but when I tried to install ArcSWAT 2012.10.16 it says SWAT is already installed.  It is removed from as an Arc toolbar. I have deleted the installation directory on my C drive, but still it says SWAT is already installed.
