What is a simulation?

We want to use Flood Modeller to model a (potential) flood. We want to consider multiple scenarios, for example, the affect from different storms, different defence designs, and/or different initial water levels. Simulations will be run for each scenario.

The area of interest could be modelled in 1D, 2D or both. Flood Modeller offers all three options and the decision on which option to select will depend upon multiple aspects, including available data for the site and available time to run simulations. The required outputs from the modelling, i.e. levels of detail and data types (for example, flood maps, animations, etc.), should also be taken into consideration.
