In this article we present a mathematical model used for surface runoff simulation in GeRa software. The model is based on diffusive wave approximation for the shallow water equations with Manning formula for flow velocity estimation. It is implemented using INMOST software platform for parallel mathematical modeling. Parallel efficiency of the model implementation is adressed for some widely used verification benchmarks. We also present surface-subsurface coupling approach used in GeRa software and discuss practical aspects of the nonlinear solver.
