== Introduction ==
This tool addsconverts tables representinga SWMM sectionsinput file (.inp) to an existinga GeoPackage. Thefile formatting(.gpkg) worksthat withcan thebe TUFLOW-SWMMvisualized toolsand foredited writing SWMM inpwithin filesGIS.<br>
For most tables, the GeoPackage file is a simple conversion of the SWMM tables. For tables that have columns with multiple options, each of the options has its own column (it is a wide-format that does not reuse columns for different purposes).<br>
It is recommended to use this tool to create new SWMM sections to eliminate potential future errors when using the other TUFLOW-SWMM tools.
Some of the tables in the inp file will be combined in the GeoPackage representation. For example, the XSection table is appeneded to the Conduits, Weirs, and Orifices tables and the Losses table is appended to the Conduits table. Combining tables prevents needing to edit multiple tables when new features are added or moved.<br>
Fields usage can be inferred from looking at the SWMM input file documentation.<br>
