▲<li> After gaining an understanding of TUFLOW through the tutorialeLearning modeland/or tutorial datasetmodels you may be interested in developing some of your own models for testing. A free Demo option is included within the standard TUFLOW executable. The free Demo version is fully enabled, though has the following limits:
:*100,000 total cells and 30,000 active (potentially flooded) cells
:*100 1D channels
