File contents

GIS to INP Conversion

Convert GIS shapefiles (Manholes.shp + Links.shp) into a SWMM .inp model file. Supports lossless round-trip restoration when metadata from a previous inp_to_gis export is available.

Conversion Modes

Lossless Restore (--no_preserve_all_sections NOT set, --rebuild_core_from_gis NOT set) — If metadata JSON exists alongside the shapefiles, the original INP is restored byte-for-byte from the cached full text.
Preserve Non-Core, Rebuild Core (--no_preserve_all_sections NOT set, --rebuild_core_from_gis set) — Keeps all non-network sections (options, time-series, etc.) from metadata and rebuilds the core network sections ([JUNCTIONS], [OUTFALLS], [CONDUITS], etc.) from the current GIS geometry.
GIS-Only Minimal (--no_preserve_all_sections set) — Creates a minimal INP containing only the network sections derived from GIS, with no metadata required. Useful when starting from scratch.

Usage

python skills/gis-to-inp/Scripts/gis_to_inp_cli.py \
  --gis_path <path to GIS folder or Manholes.shp> \
  --output_inp <output .inp path> \
  --links_path <optional Links.shp path> \
  --default_roughness 0.013 \
  --rebuild_core_from_gis

Parameter	Description	Default
--gis_path	Directory containing Manholes.shp (or path to Manholes.shp directly)	(required)
--output_inp	Output path for the generated .inp file	(required)
--links_path	Explicit path to Links.shp (auto-resolved from gis_path if omitted)	None
--default_roughness	Manning's roughness for conduits when not in GIS attributes	0.013
--no_preserve_all_sections	Flag to disable metadata-based preservation (creates minimal INP)	False (preserve is on)
--rebuild_core_from_gis	Flag to rebuild core network sections from GIS instead of restoring from metadata	False

Output

Prints a summary including:

Conversion mode used (lossless_restore, preserve_non_core_rebuild_core, or gis_only_minimal)
Output INP file path
Whether lossless metadata was used
Network statistics: node count, junction count, outfall count, link count
