===TUFLOW FV Flexible Mesh Model===
Given the short timeframe, selection andThe adoption of approach taken was based on minimizing preparation time. This approach could be interpreted as a “rapid solution” approach, providing preliminary advice for floodplain managers.
 
The cell sizes in the main river channels were chosen to allow between 5 and 10 cells across the channel width. As flow in the main channels is primarily in one direction, cells length were made longer than cell widths in order to optimize computational performance. Cell sizes on the floodplains were chosen to broadly represent overland flow characteristics, without capturing finer resolution features (such as roads, etc).
