Crayfish Legacy Support for QGIS 2.x

About Crayfish

Crayfish is a plugin (extension) developed by external pageLutra Consulting for the free and open source GIS platform QGIS. The Crayfish plugin aspires to be a complete set of post-processing tools to support numerical modelling within QGIS. With Crayfish, users can load time varying mesh into QGIS. Currently, Crayfish supports a number of hydraulic modelling software packages including BASEMENT.

Crayfish loads and renders results directly rather than converting them to GIS formats before viewing. This allows users to flick quickly through the various output steps in theresult files and to create animations. When loading data via Crayfish into your QGIS project, the Crayfish Viewer control panel is docked into your QGIS window in order to modify the properties of the displayed Crayfish Quantities.
