Introduction
This page describes the process of installing and using the TUFLOW QGIS plugin. The Plugin is available via the official QGIS repository. The plugin is available for version 2.x, a previous version was available for QGIS 1.8, however, this is no longer being actively developed.
Please report any issues or feedback to support@tuflow.com.
Prerequisites
The plugin uses the following python modules which may need to be separately installed. These may have been installed with other software, to check if they are installed on your machine, you can install the plugin (see instructions below) and check that the required dependencies are installed. To do this run TUFLOW > About > Check Python Dependencies Installed from the menu. All going well you will get a notification to tell you that the required modules are installed. If not, you will be notified if you need to install either of the the python modules below:
Please ensure QGIS / python is installed before installing the below.
- numpy (see http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.6.1/numpy-1.6.1-win32-superpack-python2.7.exe/download)
- matplotlib (see http://sourceforge.net/projects/matplotlib/files/matplotlib/matplotlib-1.1.0/matplotlib-1.1.0.win32-py2.7.exe/download)
A number of other python modules are required, however, these should be installed with QGIS / python.
