To compute the Percent Impervious for each sub-basin of the MODRAT model, read in a land use data layer. Land use data is generally stored in a GIS, the best way to read it into WMS is though a Shapefile. To import land use data for use with MODRAT, create a [[WMS:Land Use|Land Use Coverage]], then [[WMS:Importing Shapefiles|import the polygon file]] and ensure that the ''Percent Impervious'' field (often called IMPERV_ by the LACDPW) is assigned to LA County Soil land use field of WMS. Once the land use data is present in WMS, compute and assign % impervious using the '''[[WMS:Importing Shapefiles|Map Attributes]]''' command from the ''MODRAT'' menu.
