Line 80: ==Extract Elevation of Breakline Vertices From IDW Interpolation== Extract elevation at breakline vertices from '''Interpolated''' using the QGIS processing tool 'Drape (set Z value from raster)'. For more information about this tool, please refer to <u>[https://docs.qgis.org/3.3440/en/docs/user_manual/processing_algs/qgis/vectorgeometry.html#drape-set-z-value-from-raster QGIS Documentation - Drape]</u>. <ol> <li> In QGIS, load the breaklines layer (e.g. '''TUFLOW\model\gis\2d_zsh_M02_landscape_002_L'''). Line 95: ==Create TIN Mesh== Create a TIN Mesh using the QGIS processing tool 'TIN Mesh Creation'. This tool will generate a TIN mesh from the above outputs and any Z shape points layers (points layers containing elevation data). For more information about this tool, please refer to <u>[https://docs.qgis.org/3.3440/en/docs/user_manual/processing_algs/qgis/mesh.html#tin-mesh-creation QGIS Documentation - TIN Mesh Creation]</u>. <ol> <li>Go to 'Mesh' in the Processing Toolbox panel and select 'TIN Mesh Creation'. This opens the dialog shown below: Line 105: Output format: 2DM Output coordinate system: Use the project CRS. *Output file: Save to the model's '''grid''' folder ('''TUFLOW\model\grid'''). ~~Ensure~~Name the TIN and ensure the file extension is '''.2dm''' (e.g. '''TIN_Mesh.2dm'''). <li>Click 'Run'. Once the tool is finished, click 'Close'. <br> <br>
