User:Jcreer/SMS:Corrupt Project Data

Jump to navigationJump to search

Occasionally, files used in SMS become corrupted. This can happen for a few reasons:

  • A file was blocked from saving correctly by system security
  • The save process was terminated early
  • Project files were copied incorrectly
  • Project files were stored incorrectly
  • An unknown error occurred

When files become corrupted, contact Aquaveo technical support (support@aquaveo.com) to report the issue.

Rebuilding a Corrupted Project

While the corrupted project file itself cannot be restored, the component pieces of the project can be reassembled in SMS and saved out as part of a new project file. Below is a list of the file types to reassemble:

  • [project name].map: The Map Module coverages saved to the project. The model-specific boundary conditions will likely need to be entered again.
  • [project name]_meshes.h5: These are the meshes that were in the project. Load this before loading any of the datasets saved in the [project name]_datasets folder.
  • [project name]_grds.h5: These are the grids that were in the project. Load this before loading any of the datasets saved in the [project name]_datasets folder.
  • [project name].h5: Contains scatter sets that were in the project.
  • Any GIS layers, such as rasters or shapefiles, will need to be loaded again.

For ADCRIC models, use the following files to import the ADCIRC simulations:

  • Use the fort.14 or fort .15 to immport the mesh and create the simulation.
  • Import solution files such as fort.63, fort 64, maxele.63, and maxvel.63

For CMS-Flow, use the following files to import the CMS-Flow simulations:

  • [project name].cmcards file will import the UGrid and create the CMS-Flow simulation.
  • To load solultions for the CMS-Flow simulation, import the [project name].h5 files.

For SRH-2D models, use the following files to import the SRH-2D simulations:

  • Reload SRH-2D simulations (including the coverages linked to them) by loading the SRHHYDRO file, found under the [project name]\SRH-2D\[simulation name] folder.
  • To load solutions for SRH-2D simulations that were already run, import the XMDF.h5 file from the same directory as the SRHHYDRO file.

For STWAVE models, use the following files to import the SRH-2D simulations:

  • Reload STWAVE simulations (including the coverages linked to them) by loading the[simulation name].sim file, found under the simulation folder.
