* Open the <b>FloodModeller_Nodes_P.shp</b> layer from the Module_Data\Module_01\gis folder.
* Save as <b>1d_x1d_FMT_M01_nodes_001_P.shp</b> within the FMT_tutorial\FMT_M01\TUFLOW\model\gis folder.<br>{{Video|name=Define_External_1D_Networks_SHP.mp4 |width=1123}}
 
*1. Open the GIS layer <b>1d_x1d_FMT_M01_nodes_001_PFloodModeller_Nodes_P.shp</b> withinlayer from the Module_Data\Module_01\gis QGISfolder.
*2. Save as <b>1d_x1d_FMT_M01_nodes_001_P.shp</b> within the FMT_tutorial\FMT_M01\TUFLOW\model\gis folder.<br>{{Video|name=Define_External_1D_Networks_SHP.mp4 |width=1123}}
* Open the attribute table. This layer only has a single attribute correlating to the unique name of a RIVER, INTERPOLATE or REPLICATE unit within the Flood Modeller model. Note that the node IDs are case-sensitive as this is a requirement of Flood Modeller. At junctions, both the upstream and downstream nodes must be digitised within this layer.
 
3. Open the GIS layer <b>1d_x1d_FMT_M01_nodes_001_P.shp</b> within QGIS.
*4. Open the attribute table. This layer only has a single attribute correlating to the unique name of a RIVER, INTERPOLATE or REPLICATE unit within the Flood Modeller model. Note that the node IDs are case-sensitive as this is a requirement of Flood Modeller. At junctions, both the upstream and downstream nodes must be digitised within this layer.
In recent versions of Flood Modeller, it is possible to export the nodes to a TUFLOW Shapefile. This can then be used as the 1d_X1D layer. It should however be noted that the model should be correctly georeferenced within Flood Modeller which isn't always the case. The georeferencing of a model network can be a time-consuming process and should be considered at the project outset.
