Abstract: In the absence of monitored data from an urban catchment, modelling of the catchment is an accepted methodology for generating data necessary for the management of those systems. The catchment modelling systems used to generate the data are not exact and hence the generated data will contain errors. The purpose of model calibration is the minimisation of these errors. While these errors can be developed from a variety of sources, it is the errors arising from parameter values that usually are the focus of the calibration process. Presented herein is a discussion focussing on urban catchments of issues associated with parameter value identification in distributed catchment modelling systems.
