    Article Summary

    Flood Modeller allows the user to view the grid elevations for each cell of the ground grid in the Viewport.

    The procedure for displaying elevation value labels is as follows:

    1. Load the required grid into the viewport by clicking the ‘Add GIS Data’ button from the Home menu.

    2. Right click on the layer in TOC and select Properties. Go to Labels tab and check the Display Attribute checkbox. This should display the values of each cell as shown below. Tip: You may reduce the font size to allow better presentation of cell values.

    3. There is a limit to the number of labels that can be displayed at the same time. Therefore if the zoom level is set to show a large extent of grid then no labels are shown (they would be too small to read if they were shown anyway). In this case zoom in to view grid cell labels.

    Useful tip: It is possible to also display grid cell outlines. Access the grid properties panel (right- click on layer in TOC and select properties from displayed menu). Go to Symbology tab. Under the visual style section of the grid properties set the display mesh option to true.
