The ARR to TUFLOW utility has been developed to help users set up a TUFLOW model that uses Australian Rainfall and Runoff (ARR) input parameters and the Austalian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) rainfall by automating the collection and processing of the data. The inputs and outputs of the tool are explained in detail below. '''''Note:''''' this tool helps with data processing however is not a substitute to reading ARR. Similarly this wiki page discusses the use of the tool and the options, however context should be derived from ARR directly. Please see the [http://arr.ga.gov.au/arr-guideline| ARR Website] for more information.<br><br>
__TOC__

=Getting Started=
==Installation==
The ARR to TUFLOW tool is a free tool that comes as part of the TUFLOW plugin in QGIS. For instructions on how to install the plugin, read the following wiki page:<br><br>
[[TUFLOW_QGIS_Plugin#Installation_of_Plugin | How to install the TUFLOW plugin]]<br><br>
There are also instructions on installing plugins in the QGIS documentation - if you choose to follow the QGIS documentation, the plugin is called "TUFLOW" in the repository:<br><br>

==QGIS Version==
The ARR to TUFLOW tool is, for the most part, a Python tool that runs independently of QGIS. Therefore the installed QGIS version should not be a significant factor, however occasionally QGIS will update the Python version in the installation. This does present a small risk that the tool will break with QGIS version, although it's considered unlikely (the risk of the tool being broken by updates to the ARR datahub would be higher). If the tool does break, please see [[The_Tool_Isn't Working | The Tool Isn't Working]] for information (the solution is most likely to update the plugin rather than reinstall an older version of QGIS).

==Can't access websites==
For whatever reasons, sometimes the BOM or ARR Datahub websites are down or unable to be accessed by the tool. The below are a set of instructions that can be used as a workaround should this occur:
