'''Inputs''':
<ol>
<li> '''Empty Directory''' - the location that contains the empty (template) files. This is determined based on the directory set in the '''<u>[[QGIS_TUFLOW_Create_Project | Create TUFLOW Project]]</u>''' tool. Alternatively the empty path could have been saved by the "Save directory to Project" or "Save directory to Global".
<li> '''Empty Types''' - the empty types to be imported. Multiple file types can be specified together. More information is given for the empty files in the "Tool Tip" with further information obtainable by using the provided links to the <u>[https://docs.tuflow.com/classic-hpc/manual/latest/ TUFLOW Manual]</u> and the TUFLOW Wiki.
<li> '''Run ID''' - the name of the output file. The output file name uses the following convention - <empty_type>_<Run_ID>_<geometry_type><file_ext> - e.g. 1d_nwk_runID_L.shp
<li> '''Geometry Type''' - the geometry type of the imported layer. Different datasets in TUFLOW will use different geometry types, for example the active and in-active model areas are defined by region (polygon) objects. In this section you can chose the geometry types to use, multiple types can be selected.

<li> '''Convert to GPKG''' - this will convert the imported format to a GPKG even if the empty file format is not a GPKG
<li> '''GPKG export options''' - dictates where and how the GPKG files are
* Separate - saves all imported types into separate GPKG databases. The database name and layer name will be identical e.g. 1d_nwk_runID_L.gpkg and layername = 1d_nwk_runID_L
* Group geometry types - Similar to "Separate" except will remove the geometry type identifier from the GPKG database name and will group geometries together e.g. 2d_zsh_runID.gpkg and layernames = 2d_zsh_runID_L, 2d_zsh_runID_P

'''Note: ''' Not all geometries are valid for all empty types. For example 2d_code layers are always regions and no point / line template is provided. Other datasets such as the 2D topography modifier (2d_zsh) format is valid for all three types.<br>
<Br>
'''Note 2: ''' since v3.3, the tool also accepts GPKG empty files. Prior to this, GPKG empty files will not be displayed in the "Empty Type" list.
