	Post-processed arch bridge curves can be imported to view alongside the plotted bridge data, or by themselves, by using "Bridge Curves > Import Bridge Curve From EOF". As the menu name suggests, the processed bridge inputs can be imported into the editor from the Estry Output File (EOF). This requires the pre-processing of the arch bridge data to have been completed by TUFLOW (this is done during the initialisation phase of a TUFLOW run and therefore does not require a TUFLOW simulation to have finished before checking).~~<Br>~~		Post-processed arch bridge curves can be imported to view alongside the plotted bridge data, or by themselves, by using "Bridge Curves > Import Bridge Curve From EOF".

			'''Note:''' the EOF file is currently the only location that writes out information on bridge opening and blockage information (this information is not written to any other check file). The 1d_ta_tables check file does not report bridge opening area and only reports unobstructed area as it reports only on information from layers using <font color="blue"><tt>Read GIS Table Links </tt></font> <font color="red"><tt>==</tt></font><tt> <gis file></tt>.<Br>

	===Make Edits and Run the Tool===		===Make Edits and Run the Tool===
			This step shows how to make edits to the existing bridge and then export the changes. This demonstration uses the output option 'Overwrite Existing Items' which will overwrite the current inputs. This generally isn't recommended to do without first incrementing the layer using the <u>[[QGIS_TUFLOW_Increment_Layer \| Increment Tool]]</u>. The tool will produce confirmation dialogs if the output CSV files (cross-section and bridge tables) already exist. The edits made in this step is simply modifying the bridge obvert and springing level.<br>

			This step shows how to open the arch bridge editor and select the input GIS layers. Because the layers are existing input layers (and all relevant attributes are populated), the editor will load in the table data automatically once the inputs are selected. The bridge geometry can then be visualised using the "Plot" button.<br>
