=Purpose=
This page has been setup in the event that the ARR datahub cannot be accessed by 'Extract ARR2016 for TUFLOW' tool in QGIS, but can still be accessed manually by the user. This situation may occur during times of heavy automated traffic on the website.<br><br>
The following error appears in the log.txt when the tool cannot access the ARR website.<br>
'''Failed to get data from ARR website'''<br>
=Workaround=
There is a workaround in place for this situation. It requires the user to manually extract data from the ARR datahub, perform some file manipulation, then save the file in the correct location with the correct name. The tool has been setup to first attempt to access the ARR datahub. If failing this, it will then seek to find an existing copy of the extracted data.<br>
=Steps=

Line 15 ⟶ 21:
<li> Copy the contents of the csv to the end of 'ARR_Web_data'<br>[[File:ARR_Web_data_content_addtp.PNG | 250px]]
<li> Infront of 'EventID' in the newly copied across data, insert the following text '''[STARTPATTERNS]'''<br>[[File:ARR_Web_data_content_addtpHeader.PNG | 550px]]
<li> Save 'ARR_web_data_'
<li> Run the tool in QGIS again - ''The tool should now first try and access the datahub online. If this fails, it will then look for a pre-existing datahub output with temporal patterns included''
