Below is a documented SWAT+ model-build snapshot for the Peace watershed—the same export class as Watershed Explorer. The metric strip, maps, charts, NHD flowline-length summary by feature class, and fact tables follow from that committed export.

The metric strip, fact tables, and optional DEM/CDL maps describe the exported SWAT+ workspace for Peace (HUC8 03100101). NHD-linked stream statistics and PRISM climate headers follow the same conventions as other SWATGenX state sample models across CONUS.

Counties in the basin overlay: (Population overlay counties populate after sync).

  • Runoff timing and climate variability across multi-year forcing
  • Channel routing and NHDPlus HR hydrography linkage
  • Land cover and HRU discretization for management screening
  • Reproducible SWAT+ package delivery via SWATGenX

Key facts

The first table lists basin id, climate window, CDL and population context, and the two published stream-length definitions (channel routing versus NHD-linked stream GIS). The strip above still carries headline structure counts (HRUs, channels, lakes).

What SWATGenX generates

SWATGenX assembles national inputs, runs the QSWAT+ / SWAT+ Editor workflow, and exports a reviewable SWAT+ workspace (TxtInOut + GIS + SQLite). Open the package in SWAT+ Editor for scenarios; add calibration and validation with local data where your study requires it.

This sample build uses the same CONUS resolutions as every SWATGenX package—NHDPlus HR at 1:24k, 30 m terrain (from 10 m 3DEP), 250 m NLCD/CDL (from 30 m), 250 m gSSURGO (from 10 m), ~4 km PRISM, and daily NSRDB at PRISM stations (from ~2 km, 30-minute data).

SWAT+ in Florida — common questions

  • How do I run SWAT+ in Florida? Use SWATGenX to screen basins in Florida on the Watershed Explorer map, then queue a SWAT+ model build for a USGS gage, catalog HUC12, or HUC8. The platform assembles national datasets into a SWAT+ Editor package without manual QSWAT+ desktop prep for each basin. The sample model on this page is Peace (HUC8 03100101).
  • What is the difference between SWAT and SWAT+ in Florida? SWAT (legacy) and SWAT+ (current process-based watershed model) both support long-term hydrology and water-quality studies in Florida. SWATGenX targets SWAT+ and delivers reproducible, high-resolution projects on NHDPlus HR hydrography.
  • Can SWATGenX build SWAT+ models for Florida watersheds? Yes. SWATGenX covers CONUS, including Florida, with the same national data stack (WBD, NHDPlus HR, PRISM, NLCD, gSSURGO). Each state page documents a sample basin snapshot from a real SWATGenX build; open the live map at https://www.swatgenx.com/watershed-workspace to model your own watershed.
  • Is SWAT+ modeling in Florida free on SWATGenX? Signed-in users can explore Florida on the map and use tiered quotas for reports and model builds. See https://www.swatgenx.com/pricing for Basic vs Pro limits; Pro adds optional cloud calibration where enabled.
