Introduction

The native non-Graphical User Interface (GUI) form of TUFLOW uses Geographic Information System (GIS) files for its spatial inputs. TUFLOW requires specific file formats for all of its GIS inputs, corresponding to specific TUFLOW commands or functions. To accommodate for this requirement, the first task in any modelling project requires the writing of template (empty) GIS files. The process how to write template (empty) GIS files is demonstrated in Tutorial Module 1.

The Section below provides a summary of the template (empty) GIS files, the associated TUFLOW command and a basic description of the file/commands function.
