Time series plotting

Dear EFDC,
I want to know about time series plotting. I try to plotting water surface between observation data and model result for calibration. But in #calib_plots emf.file, only observation data graph appear. How to plott its ? i confused to define MMA, define layer and apply default to define/edit calibration plott.
Thanks

Hi Dyah Ari,

Could you please let us know which EFDC version are you using ? I think it has nothing to do with defining MMA. But you should make sure you have the proper pathname for your data file. In the calibration tools you need to provide, X and Y coordinates , layer , depth , ID , Pathname , parameter, R Avg, Grp Use etc. If you only see observation data graph then the location of your cell where you want to extract the water surface elevation may not be correct. Another thing you should make sure is that in your "Param" column you should input the value as "-1". If you are unsure about what parameter to use then right click on the column of "Param" and you will see Parameter codes. For your convenience I have copied parameter codes here.

Parameter Codes
