timestep
If a time step is specified, output will be generated for the specific time step in addition to the
summary and total flows at the outlet. This parameter can be combined with topidxclass to specify a
time step and topographic index class at the same time. If no topidxclass is given, output will be
generated for all the topographic index classes.
toptopidxclass
If a topographic index class is specified, output will be generated for the given topographic index
class. This parameter can be combined with timestep. If no timestep is given, output will be
generated for all the time steps.
topidx, ntoptopidxclasses, outtoptopidxstats
The topidx map can optionally be used for creating a new topographic index statistics file. This map
has to be already clipped to the catchment boundary. The entire range of topographic index values
will be divided into ntoptopidxclasses and the area ratio of each class will be reported in the
outtoptopidxstats file. These three parameters can be omitted unless a new topidxstats file needs to
be created.
