Introduction

The 2d_bc boundary, 2d_mat layer and TUFLOW Tutorial Module 3 culverts are supplied and inspected. A receiving polygon is created to track the pollutant mass fluxes at the downstream end of the model.

Review Supplied Input Files

A number of model input files have been provided in the TUFLOW_CATCH_Module_01\Tutorial_Data folder. Copy the following GIS files into the Modelling\TUFLOW\model\gis folder:

  • 2d_bc_TC01_001_L
  • 2d_mat_TC01_001_R
  • 2d_bc_M03_culverts_001_P
  • 2d_bc_M03_culverts_001_L
  • 2d_bc_M03_culverts_001_R
  • 1d_nwk_M03_culverts_001_L

Investigate the supplied files:

  1. In Windows File Explorer, navigate to the Modelling\TUFLOW\model\gis folder. Drag and drop the above layers into QGIS.
  2. Click on the 'Apply TUFLOW Styles to Open Layers' symbol from the TUFLOW Plugin toolbar.

  3. The 2d_bc_TC01_001_L layer contains the downstream boundary:
    • It is a stage-discharge (HQ) boundary with a 1% water surface slope
    • This layer contains the downstream boundary from TUFLOW Tutorial Module 1. The upstream boundary was removed as TUFLOW CATCH does not support source??.
  4. The 2d_mat_TC01_001_R layer contains the spatial definition of material types:
    • It is a supplementary material file to 2d_mat_M01_001_R, which is used in the TUFLOW tutorials. For more information, refer to TUFLOW Tutorial Module 1.
    • The material file is supplied with a QGIS style file (.qml) and displays the different material groups based on the Material ID.
    • An aerial photo of the model area was used as a guide to create the regions in this materials file.


  5. The other supplied layers represent culverts. For more information, refer to TUFLOW Tutorial Module 3.


Create Receiving Polygon

A receiving polygon (2d_rp) is a single polygon that covers the downstream receiving waters. The TUFLOW HPC cells within the polygon will be removed from the TUFLOW HPC simulation. TUFLOW CATCH will write summary timeseries files that describe total water and pollutant mass fluxes entering the polygon. The receiving polygon must encompass the downstream 2d_bc boundary (2d_bc_TC01_001_L).

Create the 2d_rp layer using the TUFLOW CATCH plugin:

  1. Go to Processing > Toolbox from the top dropdown menu options to open the Processing Toolbox.
  2. Go to TUFLOW Catch in the processing tool list and select 'Import Empty'. This opens the dialog shown below.
    • Project Directory: Click ..., and navigate to the TUFLOW_CATCH_Module_01\Modelling folder.
    • Empty Type: Click ..., and tick on '2d_rp' from the empty type list.
    • Geometry Type: Click ..., and tick on 'Region'.
    • Run ID: TC01_001
  3. Click 'Run'. Once the tool has finished, click 'Close'. The 2d_rp_TC01_001_R will appear in the QGIS Layers panel.


  4. In the QGIS Layers panel, select (left click) 2d_rp_TC01_001_R and toggle on editing.
  5. Select 'Add Polygon Feature'.
  6. Digitise a polygon similar to below. Ensure that it encompasses the downstream 2d_bc boundary. Use the right mouse button to terminate the polygon and an attributes dialog will appear. Click 'OK' with no attribute information input.
  7. Turn off editing to save the edits.
