Short Description of Functionality

Program DATACONVERT is used to convert computational results from the integrated modelling system Delft3D into BAW-specific data formats. The following conversions are currently supported:

conversion of a Delft3D computational grid into UnTRIM grid format,
conversion of two-dimensional (depth averaged) Delft3D computational results into BDF data format (2D),
conversion and depth averaging of three-dimensional Delft3D computational results into BDF data format (2D), and
conversion of three-dimensional Delft3D computational results (sigma-coordinates) into BDF data format (3D, z-layers).

Dynamic model bathymetry (morphodynamics) is supported for 2D as well as 3D computational results. If Delft3D model results have been produced for a domain decomposition run, the converted results are written to different domain-specific data files and are not yet combined into one single file.

Conversion of subsequent physical quantities is currently possible:

water level,
current velocity,
salinity,
temperature,
suspended sediment (several fractions),
bathymetry (static),
transient bathymetric depth, and
vertical erosion.

Input-Files

steering data
file of type dataconvert.dat. The extended description for this file contains comprehensive informations with respect to steering data, input as well as output data files.
computational grid
required:

delft3d.grd,

delft3d.dep, and

delft3d.enc.
optional:
- delft3d.dry,
- delft3d.thd,
- delft3d.lwl,
- delft3d.ext, as well as
- delft3d.bnd.

computational results

netcdf.cdf.

(optional) vertical structure

vertical.dat.

Output-Files

converted computational grid
- untrim_grid.dat.
converted computational results
- dirz.bin.r,
- dirz.bin.i, and
- dirz.bin.
printer file
- dataconvert.sdr.
(optional) trace file
- dataconvert.trc.

Methodology

The original computational grid is converted using methods from software package H_GRID. Conversion of computational results is performed using methods from the H_IP package. Read and Write of computational data is carried through using several methods from software package IO_DATASET.
