Sysem got hanged while creating Grid & Grid Data

Hello,

We have to create Grid And Grid Data for our Study area in OFF.But while creating Grid and grid data data system got hanged .We have tried this for several times but unfortunately its failed.Our grid size is 2*2 m. Our System has 256 GB RAM.We have to create Grid data for ulmost 20 shp files.I have uploaded these files via secure file upload.What is the reason behind it for not creating Grid & data?

  • Hello Avikant, I can confirm that we received your file and will take a look at this. In the meantime, can you confirm any specifics on the steps taken to reproduce the issue? How long did you wait before terminating the task? Can you confirm that the OpenFlows FLOOD process was not using any CPU (from the Windows Task Manager) while the apparent hang was occurring? What version of OpenFlows FLOOD are you using?

  • Hello,

    I have waited almost 2 hrs before terminating the task .

    We are using version 10.03.00.01.

  • You can for instance contact us by email, to let us help you achieving your objectives. Depending on your purposes, you can have less resolution in the upstream part of your basin, and then build high definition models in the flood area of interest (which normally, isn't a 10 km x 10km area). 

  • Hello but for that we have to create two different grids ?or any other option for that ?How to verify results in that case as upper basin contributing runoff to lower basin if we create two different grids?

  • So you could would have 2 different models (model 1 - lower resolution => greater spatial extent, covering the whole spatial area; model 2 => higher resolution and lower spatial extent, on the main critical area), each one with its own spatial domain, its DTM, its boundary conditions, and its configuration files. . From a conceptualization perspective, you would implement an offline nesting modelling approach: Model 1 would provide the runoff to the model 2, and eventually, model 1 could be set up as a 1D model. Model 1 would need to output river flow timeseries in the nodes close to the boundary of model 2. Then, model 2 would need to be configured with discharges module activated, so that you can impose variable discharges in the upstream boundaries, and thus model 2 can "receive" runoff from model 1 as discharges. Discharge can be imposed as a line discharge (it will distribute the runoff coming from a node in model 1 over the model 2 grid cells that compose the cross section you select for receiving the discharge). You can draw the line using OpenFlows FLOOD (Toolbox > Geometry Layers > Create Lines Layer). 

  • Hello ,I have created Grid 10*10 m for study area .but while creating grid data for building Footprints (permeability)it took more than 12 hrs and even  operation was not successful. I have uploaded data from secure file uploading.Can you confirm same time required for creating grid data for building?

  • Hi Avikant, as written before in this thread, the critical point is the number of grid cells, not necessarily the grid space (for instance, you can create 0.5m x 0.5m covering 2km x 2km without problems, because it's about 1000 x 1000 cells = 1 million cells).
    How many grid cells are you trying to compute? As mentioned before, should not be more than 1 million (e.g. 1000 x 1000).
