Routing Units

Routing Units are the spatial units in SWAT+ that allow us to lump outputs and route them to any other spatial object. Routing Units do not have a lot of properties as they mostly serve the purpose of collecting hydrographs. The simulation of the processes generating those hydrographs is controlled by the properties of the individual elements within a routing unit.

  • rout_unit.rtu references other files specifying the elements that are part of a Routing Unit and its topographic and field properties.

  • rout_unit.def specifies which elements a Routing Unit contains.

  • rout_unit.ele lists all elements that are part of a Routing Unit.
