Convert XPSWMM GIS Inlet Layer to SWMM
This tool converts an XPSWMM GIS layer with 2D connectivity information for use with TUFLOW-SWMM.
The tool works on discharges computed from the equation: Q=coefficient*depthexponent
To export the GIS layer required from XPSWMM or the XPSWMM Viewer:
The inlets require a name for each combination of coefficient and exponent that must be added to the GIS layer.
Once the layer is setup, you can run the tool and select the parameters for the appropriate fields. The Ground elevation should be used for the "Inlet elevation field." The CRS should match your TUFLOW-SWMM project.
This processing tool generates a GIS layer that can be used to with the "Read GIS SWMM Inlet Usage" command to link SWMM inlets to a TUFLOW 2D model.
