Generalized Computer Program. Interactive Paired-Function Data Input Program for Flood Damage Data -PIP. User's Manual

Abstract

The Interactive Paired-function Data Input computer program (PIP) is designed to assist in inserting and storing flood damage paired-function data in the Hydrologic Engineering Center's Data Storage System (DSS). The HECDSS User's Guide and Utility Program Manuals (Hydrologic Engineering Center, Draft, 1983) provide a detailed description of the data storage system. In the past, flood damage analysis data written to a DSS file had to be generated by an HEC program, such as the Structure Inventory for Damage Analysis Program (SID - Hydrologic Engineering Center, 1982) or the Flood Hydrograph Package (HEC-1 - Hydrologic Engineering Center, 1985). By using PIP, a person can now enter data directly from a keyboard into a DSS file. The program is basically a utility to enable performance of analysis as described in the Flood Damage Analysis Package (FDA - Hydrologic Engineering Center, 1986) when basic data are derived from other than HEC programs. Keywords: PIP specifically is designed as an interactive program and should not be run in a batch environment. The program is menu-driven.
