Objects and Methods
Aggregate Distribution Canal
The Aggregate Distribution Canal (AggDistributionCanal) object contains Distribution Canal objects as its elements. The aggregated object may route the Diversion Requested from WaterUsers through a set of Distribution Canals upstream to a Diversion Object, Water User, or Agg Diversion Site.
The AggDistributionCanal also routes flow through the Distribution Canals. Links are automatically created between the AggDistributionCanal and its elements. Links are also created and maintained between the Distribution Canal elements.
See “Distribution Canal” for details on the linking structure.
