When running HEC-1, WMS reads the TAPE22 hydrograph results file. However, it is convenient to read measured hydrographs for comparison with computed hydrographs, therefore a simplified hydrograph file format can be used. The format is shown in Figure 1, with a sample file given in Figure 2.

4.0 0.0
Field Variable Value Description
1 name str Station (basin or outlet) name (KK in HEC-1).
2 starttime + Military time (0-2400) at the start of the event.
3 interval + Interval in minutes between hydrograph ordinates.
4 numordinates + The number of hydrograph ordinates.
5-n flow + Hydrograph ordinates.Each of fields 1-5+n are repeated for each station in the file.

The hydrograph file is considered to be free-field when read by WMS so any number of spaces can be used to separated the different parameters. Figure 2 shows a sample file where there are 25 ordinates with a time interval of 30 minutes.
