:'''Note:''' If 'Use DTM' was selected, please continue through the steps below. Otherwise, <u>do not</u> complete these steps; continue to the <u>[[XPSWMM_Conversion_TUFLOW_Structure | Convert XPSWMM Model to Recommended TUFLOW Structure]]</u> section.
 
XPSWMM provides two options for preprocessing the DTM to be used in the TUFLOW model, both options are outlined below. As 'Option 1' is straightforward and 'Option 2' is more involved, 'Option 2' is demonstrated in the video below.
 
 
=== Option 1 (recommended) - Use Original Source Elevation Data Imported to XPSWMM: ===
<ol>
<li> Locate the original 'Grid' file (.asc or .flt/.hdr format). Save it to the folder where XPSWMM writes the .tcf during its simulation preprocessing. By default, this is the '''2D\Data''' folder. <br>
Line 37:
<li> Tick on 'Use grid file for topography' and select '...' to navigate to the Grid file saved in the '''2D\Data''' folder. This file will be read directly into TUFLOW.
<li> Click 'OK' to save the settings.
<li> If these steps worked as expected, skip 'Option 2' and continue to the <u>[[XPSWMM_Conversion_TUFLOW_Structure | Convert XPSWMM Model to Recommended TUFLOW Structure]]</u> section. Otherwise, proceed to '<u>[[#Option 2' - Export DTM Data from XPSWMM |Option 2]]</u>.
</ol>
<br>
 
=== Option 2 - Export DTM Data from XPSWMM: ===
<ol>
<li> In the XPSWMM Layers panel, under 'Topography', right click on '''DTM''' and select 'Export DTM Data'.
