Benchmarking (multi)wavelet-based dynamic and static non-uniform grid solvers for flood inundation modelling (Simulation results)

Simulation result data for Environment Agency benchmark test 5, Thamesmead hypothetical flood, and Carlisle 2005 case studies, using uniform DG2, adaptive MWDG2, adaptive HWFV1, non-uniform DG2, non-uniform FV1 and non-uniform ACC solvers. 

Model results are archived in 3 zip files:

• EA5.zip contains results of Environment Agency test 5 (Néelz and Pender, 2013)
• Thamesmead.zip contains results of Thamesmead hypothetical flood (Liang et al., 2008)
• Carlisle.zip contains results of Carlisle 2005 flooding (Neal et al., 2009)

The results are stored with the following file extensions:

• ".wd" for 2D flood inundation maps in ESRI ASCII format
• ".stage" for water depth or water level time-series at staging points in tabulated text format
• ".velocity" for velocity time-series at staging points in tabulated text format

Model outputs are stored under directories named for each solver.
