METHODOLOGY 3.1 Modelling Approach The hydraulic model prepared for this study utilised a linked 2D version of the TUFLOW HPC (Heavily Parallelised Compute) model. For this flood study, a Direct Rainfall (also known as Rain on Grid) modelling approach has been utilised; rainfall data inputs with model losses defined based on catchment surface characteristics generate surface runoff, which is then hydraulically routed through the model topography. More detail on the modelling
