Kindly brief me on the data required for water demand and supply when using WEAP21.....what data do I require for its calibration process?....

Dear Moses,
If you would like to generally learn to use WEAP and learn about its data requirements, I encourage you to go through the activities in the WEAP tutorial (www.WEAP21.org/tutorial).
For model calibration, the data you need depends upon what you are trying to calibrate - although you will always need climate data. If you are trying to calibrate streamflow, you will need historic streamflow records. To calibrate reservoir volumes, you will need historic reservoir records. You can also calibrate with snow pack records.
