Dears,
I beggan to use Weap recently in a project that aims to access water availability at Paracatu Basin, Brazil. I'm using WEAP to create Scenarios of irrigation water Demand with diferent crop time and type, areas size at planning units. All of these with rainfall forecast. It is a hard work to do without programming. So i started to code in R (my birth language) based on "WEAP_Calibration_and_Ensamble_with_R_Tool" and VBA Examples at WEAP help. I achieve some progress which will be enough to achieve our goals. But im very interested in learn more about it since im doing a almost "try and fail" method without theorical knowledge of "COM Automation Server", VBA structure.... To do so i will created a Whats App group (https://chat.whatsapp.com/EeWWyeRzU3bHc6XS88oTAg) and i'm sharing the basic newbie R/WEAP code that i wrote. Maybe we can achieve some progress together.
For WEAP developers: If there is any problem with this post, please let me know and i delete this post.
Best Wishes. Arthur.
