Mike Plot

MIKE+ Plot

Renders MIKE+ results in the project house style. No license / no MIKE+ install needed.

House style (do not change without being asked)

Arial 12 · ticks inward (direction='in', both axes) · SI units · no title · inverted hyetograph · dpi 300. Rain #4C78A8, flow #F58518, baseline-in-a-comparison #4D4D4D (dashed). Style lives in mikeplus_mcp/contracts/plot_style.py and is shared with the SWMM figures layer.

Tools

• mike_plot_rain_flow — {res1d, element, quantity?='Discharge', rain_dfs0?, out_png} → stacked two-panel figure: rainfall inverted on top, flow on the bottom, shared time axis. rain_dfs0 is optional (a .dfs0); without it only the flow panel is drawn.
• mike_plot_timeseries — {res1d, quantity, element, out_png} → single-panel series.
• mike_plot_network — {res1d, out_png} → network layout map (reaches as lines, nodes as points, equal aspect). Use for an overview / location figure of the whole model.
• mike_plot_compare — {res1d_a, res1d_b, quantity?, element, out_png, label_a?, label_b?, rain_dfs0?, skip_hours?} → overlay of the same series from two runs (baseline dashed grey, scenario solid), optional hyetograph on top. Numbers come from mike_results_compare (see mike-compare).
• mike_plot_profile — {res1d, reaches?[] | from_node + to_node, out_png, skip_hours?} → longitudinal profile along a pipe string: bed/invert, pipe crown (invert + height), ground level (interpolated between nodes) and the max water level envelope vs cumulative chainage, node boundaries marked. Give the ordered reach ids, or two node ids and the shortest chain is found (flow direction first). Returns reaches, length_m, max_water_level (+ chainage, reach), min_freeboard_m, connectivity_problems.

Conventions

• Discover valid element / quantity / node ids with mike_results_list first; don't guess ids.
• Do not claim a figure exists unless the tool returned {ok:true, png:...} and the file was written.
• Keep units SI and the style fixed; expose only data choices (which element/quantity, which rainfall file, which reach chain) to the user.
• Profiles: pass skip_hours so the envelope is the storm, not the initial condition; if connectivity_problems is non-empty the chain you gave is not contiguous, say so.
• Long chains (> 15 reaches) label only the end nodes; that is by design, not a missing feature.

Unsupported / not-yet plot types (decision order)

Requests like a stage-discharge curve, a flooding map, a 2D (dfsu) inundation map, catchment runoff panels, or an animated profile are not covered. Do not force an existing tool to fit them:

1. Confirm the .res1d (or other file) exists and mike_results_list shows the quantity/element.
2. If an existing tool covers it, use it. If not, pull the numbers with mike_results_read / mike_results_compare and say the figure type is not available yet.
3. A new plot type is added by extending contracts/plot_style.py + workers/plot_worker.py + tools/plot.py (house style, tested on a real res1d) — do not paint ad-hoc matplotlib in a chat unless the user asks for a one-off.
