Update SWMM Nodes--Junctions Attributes

The following GIS feature update to the Nodes--Junctions attributes will finalize the SWMM portion of the TUFLOW model. This is typically the final step in the model building process, as the recommended attributes for junction node vary depending on whether the node is associated with inlet usage connections, 1D/2D culvert connections and SWMM hydrology sub-catchments.

  1. In the QGIS Layers panel, select (left click) Nodes--Junctions and toggle on editing.
  2. In the Processing Toolbox, select the 'Edit Features In-Place' tool. This allows the editing of an existing layer, instead of the creation of a new layer.
  3. Go to TUFLOW >> SWMM in the processing tool list and select the 'Junctions - Set attributes ' processing tool. This opens the dialog shown below.
    • Input Subcatchment layers: If available, select Hydrology--Subcatchments.
    • Input Inlet Usage Layers: If available, select the inlet usage layer (i.e. swmm_iu_XP_001)
    • Input BC Connection Layers: If available, select the 2d_bc connection layer (i.e. 1D2D_Urban_001_2d_bc_L).
    • General Options:
    • Maximum Depth Option (Ymax): 'Set to 0.0'.
    • Nodes receiving subcatchment flows option (if connected to 2D): 'Set Apond = 0.0; Ksur = 0.0 (overwrites options below)'.
    • Nodes connected to 2D without Inlets:
    • Ysur: 0
    • Area of ponding: This value should match the 2D cell area associated with 1D/2D culvert connections.
    • Nodes connected to 2D with Inlets:
    • Maximum depth (Ymax) option: 'Use global option'
    • Ysur: 0
    • Area of ponding: This value should match the 2D cell area associated with the Inlet Usage connections.
    • Nodes without 2D Connection:
    • Surcharge Depth: This value should be a value higher than any expected water level in the model.
    • Area of ponding: 1
  4. Select 'Modify All Features'. Once the tool has finished, click 'Close'.
  5. Turn off editing to save the edits.
  6. View the attributes within Nodes--Junctions to verify the data processing has been completed correctly.
    For a summary of the attributes associated with the Nodes--Junctions layer, refer to TUFLOW 2023-03-AD Release Notes (Table A.30) and the SWMM Reference Manual - Volume 2 (Hydraulics).
