Development of GeoSWMM 2D Projects
GeoSWMM 2D modeling tools enable the user to create and assign attributes for 2D features in a GeoSWMM project. These tools assist users in defining a boundary layer, creating all the associated nodes, and links to generate the 2D mesh, connecting the 2D features with the 1D features through different connection options, and generate flood extent raster. Each tool requires prerequisite layer(s) to process and generate the next level of layer(s). Users need to follow the hierarchical process established within these tools to generate the subsequent output layer(s).
