Utility Execution

The utility requires GIS projection information to correctly translate the SWMM file (.inp) from format to *mif or *.shp format. This is done by including either a projection or header file in the same folder directory as the batch file. The utility will use the projection information from this file for the data conversion.

  1. mif format input requirement: Projection.mif or Header.mif
  2. shp format input requirement: Projection.prj or Header.prj

The following error message will be produced if projection information is not available:

ERROR - A Header.prj or Projection.prj file does not exist in folder
