| Extension | Description |
|---|---|
| TUFLOW Input Files | |
| ".tcf" | TUFLOW Control File. A small, free form text file that controls the data flow and non-GIS parameters for a TUFLOW simulation. This is at the top of the tree for controlling a TUFLOW simulation. This is essential for every TUFLOW simulation. Can be colour coded in advanced text editors such as UltraEdit or NotePad++. The style is similar to writing a macro in Visual Basic. |
| ".ecf" | Similar to the .tcf, but for the 1D TUFLOW modelling inputs (Optional, not required for 2D only model). |
| ".tgc" | Similar to the .tcf, but controls the 2D topography related inputs (Mandatory). |
| ".tbc" | Similar to the .tcf, but controls the locations of the 2D boundaries (Mandatory). |
| ".tmf" ".csv" |
TUFLOW materials file, provides a database or lookup to assign Manning's n and other parameters (such as rainfall losses) to land use areas (material categories). |
