Define the study
Establish the question, model context, study period and geographic scope.
Simplex Data / PLAN YOUR INPUTS
Good models start with clear inputs.
Define the study, understand its data needs, and keep source information organized before model preparation begins.
For environmental, coastal, river and water modeling studies.
A connected process
The proposed data workflow.
A practical sequence for keeping the study context and its decisions visible.
Plan the inputs
Identify the elevation, boundaries, forcing and reference information the study needs.
Review the sources
Consider coverage, resolution, survey dates, coordinate systems and vertical datum.
Organize the handoff
Keep the source records, decisions and data gaps together for the next stage.
Define a useful handoff
Clear records support the next decision.
What a handoff could include
- A study definition and input inventory
- Source references and acquisition dates
- Coverage, resolution and datum notes
- A record of remaining data gaps
Start with the right questions
- What question should the model answer?
- Which domain and study period matter?
- Which input sources meet the study requirements?
This is an intended service outline. Detailed application features and delivery arrangements are still being developed.
The Simplex family
Keep the whole study connected.
The planned Data workflow comes before mesh preparation, helping teams identify and organize the inputs they intend to use.
