HEC-RAS to TUFLOW: Difference between revisions

The utility requires GIS projection information to correctly translate the spatial dataset from SDF format to *mif or *.shp format. This is done by including either a projection or header file in the same folder directory as the SDF file. The utility will use the projection information from this file for the data conversion.

The following error message will be produced if projection information is not available:

ERROR - A Header.prj or Projection.prj file does not exist in folder

The utility is currently limited to being run using a batch file. To create a batch file, create a new text file in the same location as the sdf file. The name is arbitrary but the file must have the extension ".bat". For example the file name could be "run_sdf_to_GIS.bat". Enter the relevant command syntax to the batchfile (refer to the 'Input Flags' table and examples provided below). Double click the batch file in windows explore to execute the model conversion.<br>
