=Flood Modeller to ESTRY conversion utility using the fm_to_estry.exe=
The fm_to_estry.exe utility creates the relevant TUFLOW Estry network layers from a Flood Modeller <b>.dat</b> file. The utility converts:
* Flood Modeller units to Estry node/link inputs (1d_nwk)
* Flood Modeller section data to Estry cross-section GIS (1d_xs) and csv inputs

<li>Save your preferences and close your batch file.
<li>Double click the batch file.
<li>The above steps will return structures from the <b>supported structures list</b> in <b>.shp</b> and <b>.csv</b> file formats to use them to further set up a 1D TUFLOW/Estry model.
The figure below illustrates Flood Modeler 1D model conversion to TUFLOW Estry.

=Other Information=
It is also possible to use the cross-sections from the Flood Modeller <b>.dat</b> file directly within a TUFLOW/Estry simulation. This means that for some simpler models, particularly those without structures, that conversion of the Flood Modeller model to an Estry format is not required with the cross-section data being used in a TUFLOW 1D /Estry model directly from the <b>.dat</b> file.
