DSI has developed a new generation grid building tool called Grid+. This new tool replaces our long-running grid building tool, CVLGrid. In order to provide a more user-friendly GUI and a host of enhanced features, we have made use of the latest software platforms to create this new grid tool. Grid+ makes the grid-building process faster and simpler for even the most challenging waterbodies. It features enhancements such as online background maps, improved orthogonalization routines, and the ability to download online bathymetry data.
Grid+ is fully integrated with EEMS so that it can be launched from EFDC+ Explorer GUI.
Several improved major features of Grid+ compared to CVLGrid are provided below.
- Improved GUI
- Object-oriented selection
- Online background map
- Improved orthogonalize grid
- Integrated with EEMS
- Download online bathymetry data
- Lat/Long coordinate system
- Display multiple grid properties simultaneously
