CampaspeModel comprises a series of MODFLOW-based surface water-groundwater models generated with the help of HydroModelBuilder. It was developed for the Lower Campaspe catchment in Victoria, Australia.

We use the Anaconda Python Distribution to ensure consistent runtime environments.

Quick setup can be achieved by downloading or cloning this repo and running the following:

conda env create --file dev_environment.yml

This will create a new environment called 'gwdev', which can be activated by running

• activate gwdev on Windows
• source activate gwdev on *nix-like systems

An alternative environment name may be specified using the -n switch, e.g.

conda env create -n my_env_name --file dev_environment.yml

The environment may be removed with:

conda env remove -n gwdev

After environment setup run conda develop . from within the repository folder to allow use of CampaspeModel as a Python package (yes, the dot matters).

To model flow and transport, CampaspeModel uses MODFLOW-NWT and MT3D-USGS which may be obtained (compiled) using pymake

CampaspeModel requires additional data files for its initial build which, unfortunately, consists of some proprietary data. Example data suitable for demonstrating the build process is currently not available, but is intended to be included in the future.
