Gebremeskel,

To display your vector shapefile, navigate to the list of shapefiles in your schematic - this will be on the left side of the schematic screen beneath the box which displays the WEAP objects (river, diversion, etc.). In the shapefile box, right click, and and select "Add Vector Layer" and navigate to where you shapefile is stored. Make sure your shapefile is in WGS1984 to display properly.

To input data regarding this watershed area into WEAP, you can create a catchment and manually input the land cover and climate data, or go to Schematic --> Catchment Delineation Mode and create a catchment in the same area using WEAP's automatic feature.

Hope this helps,
Doug
