QSWAT Beginner Workshop
The workshop will train users using the latest SWAT2012. The workshop is designed to be approximately 80% hands-on. Attendees will have to bring their laptop with QGIS and QSWAT installed and limits the class size to provide an opportunity for as much one-on-one interaction as possible.
It is assumed that attendees have a working knowledge GIS and especially QGIS. We will not review basic concepts of QGIS usage prior to covering the QGIS interface.
As part of the workshop we will go through the manual calibration and validation of flow and nutrients.
