| Area |
Area of LID.
This is the area used for rain and evaporation, i.e. if set to 0.5 times the catchment area, then half of the rain falls on the catchment and half of the rain on the LIDs directly. The sum of all Area for all LIDs within a single catchment must be less than the area of the catchment they belong to. For some LIDs (e.g. rain barrel), this area is zero. (Inherited from LIDBase) |
| Areas |
A list specifying part of LID area on catchment surfaces.
(Inherited from LIDBase) |
| CollectingAreas |
A list specifying LID collecting areas on catchment surfaces.
When entry with the same SurfaceID is also present in Areas then the entry in this list correspond to additional collecting area, which will define collecting surface. This effectively gives that the sum of all collecting areas may be smaller than TotalCollectingArea. (Inherited from LIDBase) |
| Connections |
A list specifying connection to other LIDs where the water needs to be transferred.

| Evaporation |
Evaporation in the LID at the current time step
Unit: [m/s]

| FlowStat | Flow statistics and mass balance (Inherited from LIDBase) |
| FractionOfLIDFlowToRoute |
Fraction of runoff flow from the LIDs that are routed by the catchment.
The remainder will be added directly to the catchment runoff (not routed).
The different catchment types may treat this differently. Default value: 1. Unit: [fraction] (Inherited from LIDBase) |
| Infiltration |
Infiltration in the LID at the current time step
Unit: [m/s]
(Inherited from LIDBaseOffers) |
| InitialSaturation |
Initial saturation fraction.
For storage, this fraction is used to calculate the initial storage depth. Default value: 0. Unit: [fraction]. (Inherited from LIDBase) |

| NumberOfUnits |

| ReportPath |
Path and name for report file.
If null or empty, no report file is created. Use only for testing and validating model - file can become quite big. (Inherited from LIDBase) |
| Runoff |
Runoff from LID at the current time step
Unit: [m3/s]

| SoilInfiltrationCapacity | Infiltration capacity to surrounding soil |
| Surface | Surface parameters |
| SurfaceDepressionStorageHeight |
Height of surface depressions. Below this height runoff (routing) does not take place.
This height must be less than StorageHeight Default value: 0. Unit: [m]. |
| SurfaceSideSlope |
Swale side slope (run over rise). A zero means vertical sides
Note that this is a run-over-rise, i.e. an "inverse slope". The rise is the surface storage height (StorageHeight) and is always non-zero. A zero SurfaceSideSlope will model vertical walls (zero run). The slope must be small enough for the sides not to cover the entire width of the swale. There must be a least 25 cm of flat bottom, and the slope will be corrected accordingly. |
| TotalCollectingArea |
Total collecting area is the area from which water is routed through the LIDS,
either because rain is falling directly on the LIDs (Area) or
when catchment rain (after losses) is routed to the LIDs.
This area is used by the catchment to figure out how much water should be
routed to the LIDs, effectively splitting the catchment area in 3 parts:
The TotalCollectingArea cannot be smaller than Area. The sum of all TotalCollectingArea for all LIDs within a single catchment must be less than the area of the catchment they belong to. (Inherited from LIDBase) |
