EPA SWMM's inclusion in TUFLOW does not replace ESTRY, rather both 1D solvers complement each other. Links to the TUFLOW SWMM tutorials are included in the section below.
 
 
 
=Software Requirements=
TUFLOW uses QGIS as its Graphical User Interface (GUI), in combination with text editor and spreadsheet software, for its model creation and result viewing. The group of software creates an extremely workflow efficient and flexible modeling environment. Notably, QGIS does not experience the data load/visualisationvisualization lag and display issues some other hydraulic modeling software GUIsGUI's are limited by when working with larger datasets.<br>

It is recommended to always use the latest release version of TUFLOW.<br>
 
This tutorial model does not require a TUFLOW licencelicense.<br>
 
This tutorial is configured to use a NVIDIA GPU card. If this is not available, your CPU can be used via the Hardware command. <br>
Line 36 ⟶ 35:
 
 
This tutorial was developed using QGIS 3.34 and QGIS TUFLOW Plugin 3.9.0.7311. Please use these or newer versions of QGIS and the plugin. Earlier releases will not include the TUFLOW SWMM automation tools demonstrated in the Tutorials.

=Tutorial Data=
To build the tutorial model, download the dataset below. This includes a digital elevation model (DEM), aerial photography, background model data for the tutorial model and a working version of the model. GeoPackage database has been used as the GIS format for the model build tasks. For tips on using GeopackageGeoPackage databases see <u>[https://wiki.tuflow.com/GeoPackage_Tips GeoPackage Tips]</u>.

=Tutorial Modules=
The download dataset contains the input files and working version of the tutorial model for reference. Results and check files are not included to keep the size of the download file manageable,; they canwill be created bywhen running the model simulations. The folder should be placed in a location with write permissions.<br>
 
The tutorial model is presented in a number ofseveral modules. All modules can be completed independently, however new users are encouraged to undertake the modules in sequence:
 
:*<u>[[TUFLOW_SWMM_Tutorial_M01 | TUFLOW SWMM Module 1]]</u> - 1D SWMM Culverts
:*<u>[[TUFLOW_SWMM_Tutorial_M02 | TUFLOW SWMM Module 2]]</u> - 1D SWMM Pipe Network / 2D TUFLOW Direct Rainfall Hydrology
:*<u>[[TUFLOW_SWMM_Tutorial_M03 | TUFLOW SWMM Module 3]]</u> - 1D SWMM Pipe Network / 1D SWMM Urban Hydrology
:*<u>[[TUFLOW_SWMM_Tutorial_M04 | TUFLOW SWMM Module 4]]</u> - 1D SWMM Pipe Network / 1D SWMM Urban Hydrology: Executing multiple different event simulations from a single model control file.
