=Introduction=
TUFLOW can link with a range of one-dimensional modelling software, including the <u>[http://www.floodmodeller.com Flood Modeller]</u> hydraulic modelling software which is produced by Jacobs. Flood Modeller is a software package which is primarily used in the UK for the modelling of river channels and their structures. <br>
TUFLOW can be linked to Flood Modeller in a couple of ways. The first is to connect the Flood Modeller 1D representation of the open river channel to a TUFLOW 2D representation of the floodplain. This allows dynamic coupled 1D-2D modelling of the river and it's floodplain with bi-directional flow. TUFLOW 1D elements can be used on the 2D representation of the floodplain.

==Linking Flood Modeller to TUFLOW==
This <u>[[Running_linked_Flood_Modeller_-_TUFLOW_Models | page]]</u> provides some information about how to link the Flood Modeller software to TUFLOW. Note that the method can vary depending on the version of Flood Modeller being used. Later versions of Flood Modeller allow the user to specify the folder which the TUFLOW engine files are kept within and to allow the user to vary this depending on the version required. For the approach recommended for the specific version being used, please refer to the <u>[http://help.floodmodeller.com/floodmodeller/ Flood Modeller User Manual]</u>.
==Benchmarking==
The Flood Modeller-TUFLOW benchmarking <u>[[Flood_Modeller-TUFLOW_Benchmarking | page ]]</u> provides some information about testing of a number of linked Flood Modeller 1D-TUFLOW 2D models which have been run on different TUFLOW Solvers (TUFLOW Classic and HPC), utilising different hardware (Single CPU, Multiple CPU and GPU Cards) and different machine specifications.

==How to link Flood Modeller to TUFLOW 1D==
Flood Modeller models can be connected to TUFLOW's 1D engine called Estry. This provides a powerful approach of modelling pipe networks in Estry, river channels in Flood Modeller (note that Estry can also model 1D river channels) and the floodplain and urban surface in TUFLOW, providing integrated urban catchment modelling functionality. This <u>[[TUFLOW_1D_Flood_Modeller_Connectivity | page ]]</u> provides more information on the linking approaches to link Flood Modeller to estry.
==Tutorials==
To gain a better understanding of the linking of Flood Modeller 1D domains to TUFLOW, a number of tutorials have been developed which are described [[Flood_Modeller_Tutorial_Model| here]]. The first tutorial <u>[[Flood Modeller Tutorial Module01| module]]</u> introduces the user to the linking of a TUFLOW 2D domain to a 1D Flood Modeller model. From this tutorial you will learn how to link an existing Flood Modeller 1D model to a TUFLOW 2D domain.<br> <u>[[Flood Modeller Tutorial Module02| Tutorial 2]]</u> provides instructions on how to connect a TUFLOW 1D model to Flood Modeller using a X1DQ link.
