	The asc_to_asc utility performs a comparison of each of the raster cells in a pair of raster grids. For this reason, the output grid files must have the same extent and cell size. By default the utility will produce two output files, the first is the difference in locations where both models are wet. The second contains the areas where there has been a change in inundation extent (eg. was dry now wet). The first step in using the asc_to_asc utility is to convert the TUFLOW outputs into .asc format using TUFLOW_to_GIS.exe:		The asc_to_asc utility performs a comparison of each of the raster cells in a pair of raster grids.

	If the TUFLOW simulation fails to start TUFLOW will output the error in a number of locations. Firstly, check the Console Window or the TUFLOW Log File (.tlf) (located in the '''TUFLOW\runs\log\''' folder with the name '''M05_5m_001.tlf'''). This file can be opened in a text editor and the error is generally located at the end of the file. You can however search for "Error" if you can not see the error. In most cases there is also a spatial location for the error message (if the error reported in the log file is prefixed by XY:). To check the location of the geographic errors, open the '''M05_5m_001_messages.mif''' or '''M05_5m_001_messages_P.shp''' file in your GIS package.<br>		If the TUFLOW simulation fails to start TUFLOW will output the error in a number of locations.

For this tutorial we will run two versions of the simulation, called '''EXG''' and '''DEV'''. The "EXG" case represents the existing or base case scenario. The models have the same boundaries, extents and DEM; the only difference will be that the "DEV" case has an additional layer to represent the proposed changes to the topography.
