Line 35:
<li> Open the MapInfo MIF file in GIS. If the file includes a combination of regions, lines and points QGIS will display a pop up message asking which of these features you would like to open. Select all. QGIS will split the MIF file into it's respective object types.
<li> Import empty QGIS SHP template files for the required object types.
<li> Copy the features from the MapInfo layers to the releventrelevant new QGIS SHP files. Note, double check the attribute values have been correctly transferred to the new file. In some rare instances, when the field attribute type is incompatible this does not occur.
<li> Update the commands within your updated TUFLOW model to reference to the new QGIS SHP files. For future traceability it is best to comment out the prior MapInfo input commands, instead of deleting them.
