Introduction

This tool creates a conduit extension to eliminate the SWMM error with multiple links connected to the same outfall node. This is a common issue when converting ESTRY models for use in TUFLOW-SWMM. This tool takes an existing GeoPackage file and creates a new GeoPackage file that contains the channel extensions. The newly created extension channel is always an open rectangular channel with the provided attributes. The generated channels may need to be modified to match the real world geometry at the location.

Usage

This tool can be found in the QGIS processing toolbox panel under 'TUFLOW > SWMM'. To open the Processing Toolbox Panel, navigate to 'Processing' in the menubar and select 'Toolbox'.
