XsGenerator: Difference between revisions

#If there is no cross-section line for a set of elevation points, this is accepted provided that at least one point (the start on the left bank) has a LCR values of “L” to denote the start of the cross-section. There must also be at least two “C” points in succession. Except for the first “L” point, subsequent isolated “L” and “R” points are ignored. This means it is possible to generate a cross-section database from a layer of surveyed points only, provided each point is assigned their respective XS_ID.

If a TUFLOW cross-section database has been created using [[12da_to_from_mif | 12da_to_from_mif.exe]], it will have created a .mif layer ready to be used for xsGenerator.exe. This layer can be used to assign material values in a GIS to the MNR attribute from a material polygon layer (e.g. 2d_mat layer), then processed by xsGenerator to recreate the TUFLOW cross-section database with material values allocated across the cross-section profiles in the .csv files.<br>

|"-m11"||Indicates the input files are in the Mike11 XZ cross-section format. For Mike11 cross-section conversion the utility also requires the network (.nwk11) and parameter (.hd11) files. For Mike11 the subsequent input data files are .txt, .nwk11 and .hd11 in any order.
