Section 11 Outputs

Prior to carrying out a simulation the desired output needs to be configured and customised. For viewing outputs, see Chapter 15. There are also a variety of post-processing utilities available, see Chapter 17.

The chapter includes discussion on:

  • Setting the folder location of where outputs are written (Section 11.1).
  • Configuring map output options including 1D results in a 2D form and the powerful output zones feature (Section 11.2).
  • Options for setting up time-series output from 1D and 2D domains at specified locations (Section 11.3).
  • Specialised outputs such as time and depth of inundation along evacuation routes (Section 11.4).
  • Options for customising the check and log file outputs (Section 11.5).
  • List of commands available for customising all the different output options, including output to the simulation console window, check files and folder locations (Section 11.6).
