How to correct weir, pump, or culvert drawn as point

The Water Overlay models a number of constructions as line-based constructions, which might be stored as points in your own data. This can be constructions such as pumps and weirs. If those constructions are loaded in as a point, the Tygron Platform cannot determine directly which cells should be connected by the indicated structure.

Resolving this would require either redrawing the structure as a line rather than a point, or adding an angle attribute (such as the weir angle for weirs). Adding an angle has an added benefit of interrupting the waterway the structure is located in, so that water can only flow through the construction and not pass by it.

If the data cannot be redrawn as lines as a preparatory step, and no angle attribute can be added as a preparatory step, the following options exist to correct the data in the Tygron Platform:

Manually redraw as line

Manually configure an angle

Generate angles automatically
