## Rainfall Data

Insert all the input below;

1. Erosivity Factor, R. Use can refer to the Rainfall Map for the R value.

2. Insert the Rainfall Depth. User can refer to ["IDF"](https://mes100.com/docs/idf/) to obtain rainfall intensity for a given rainfall duration and ARI. Then use the IDF relationship to find the corresponding rainfall depth.

*Rainfall depth (P~d) = Rainfall Intensity (mm/hr) x Storm Duration (hr)*

3. Insert the Storm Duration

## Define Site Data

1. Define Phase Condition
2. Define Zone Info

## Full Site Data

1. Choose the Zone that wants to be analyzed
2. Choose the phase condition.
3. Tick at the *Include In Design* if user wants to consider the sediment control in the design.
