<li>Go to Plugins > TUFLOW > Editing > Configure / Create TUFLOW Project.
<li>Change the folder which contains TUFLOW to the '''Module_02''' folder. This is the only change required, the model folder structure and template empty files are supplied from previous model.<br>
Note: The 'results' and 'check' folder get automatically created when the TUFLOW model is run. <br>

:*No ‘Z’ attribute is specified, the elevations are taken from the 2d_zsh point layer.
Line 43 ⟶ 42:
:*The Shape_Option of 'MAX' is specified for all breaklines. The Zpt elevations only changes when the Z shape elevation at the Zpt is higher. The purpose of the Z shape is to enforce the highest elevations along the road crest.

<li>The 2d_zsh point layer is used to apply elevation to the breaklines:
:*The values in the 'Z' attribute are elevations above datum assigned to each point. The elevations are being interpolated along the breakline.
:*The points must be snapped to the vertices of the 2d_zsh line to instruct TUFLOW that these layers are linked. If no points are in the layer, the elevation on the line object is used, i.e. the elevation along the line does not vary. For more information,

<li>Create a new folder called '''Data_Processing''' in the '''Module_02''' folder.
<li>Use the 'Import Empty File' tool to create a new 2d_zsh layer called ‘breaklines’ as a ‘line’ type. In the Spatial Database Options, select 'All to one'. Navigate to the '''Data_Processing''' folder and create a new GeoPackage database called '''M02_Breaklines.gpkg'''. Click Save and hit 'OK'.
<li>Digitise a line using the ‘Add Line Feature’ button following the road crest. This could match the provided breaklines or be
<li>Enter the following attributes and save the file:
*fid: Autogenerate
*Z: Null
*dZ: 30
*Shape_Width: 5
*Shape_Option: Max
<li>Create a new batch file '''_run_M02_asc_to_asc_Breaklines.bat''' in the '''Module_02\Data_Processing''' folder and open it in a text editor.
<li>Input the following (Note: Utility location may differ): <br>
<font color="blue"><tt>'''set''' </tt></font> <font color="black"><tt>asc_to_asc</tt></font><font color="red"><tt>=</tt></font><font color="black"><tt>"
<li>Use the -brkline flag to call the breakline function. The utility then expects the 2d_zsh_breaklines layer and the DEM.<br>
<font color="orange"><tt>%asc_to_asc% </tt></font> <font color="black"><tt>-brkline "M02_Breaklines.gpkg >> 2d_zsh_breaklines_L" ..\TUFLOW\model\grid\DEM.tif</tt></font> <br>
<li>Save the batch file and double click it in file explorer to run the utility.
<li>The utility creates a new '''M02_Breaklines_brkline.gpkg''' that contains a points layer and updates the lines layer. These layers can be copied into '''Module_02\TUFLOW\model\gis\M02_001.gpkg''' and read into the TGC.
