Tutorial M06 002 Results QGIS

Introduction

QGIS is used to create, import and view input data.

Method

Create a 2d_rf layer with digitised polygons based on the input rainfall hyetographs:

1. Click on the ‘Import Empty File’ tool from the TUFLOW Plugin toolbar.
2. Select '2d_rf' from the Empty Type list.
3. In the Run ID box write: 'M06_polygons_002'.
4. Tick the 'Regions' Geometry Type and hit 'OK'. The 2d_rf appears in the QGIS Layers panel.
   

The same catchment breakup is used as the 2d_sa layer:

1. Navigate to the Module_06\TUFLOW\model\gis folder and open the 2d_sa_M01_001_R.shp layer in QGIS.
2. Copy and paste the polygons from the 2d_sa layer into the 2d_rf:
   
   
   
   
3. Open the attribute table and make the following edits:

   • Update names to match the names in the rainfall_station.csv input data (RF_FC04, RF_FC05, RF_FC06, RF_FC07)
   • f1: 1
   • f2: 1
     

   The attributes f1 and f2 are multipliers adjusting the rainfall spatially. No adjustments are made, a value of 1, e.g. 100% of specified rainfall is used.
   
4. Turn off editing to save the edits.
   
   
   

Conclusion

• Polygons have been digitised based on input rainfall hyetographs.
