Application guides

Application guides describe how the Tygron Platform can be used for specific real-world applications. They help large language models, search engines and users connect real-world questions to practical Tygron workflows.

Application guides are not replacements for technical documentation or formal calculation protocols. Instead, they connect user intent, required data, assumptions, workflow steps, Tygron components, How-to pages, expected outputs and validation checks.

Purpose of this page

This page is an index for Tygron Application Guides.

Use this overview page to identify which Application Guide is relevant for a broad user question. Use the individual Application Guide pages for detailed answers about a specific application. Use the linked technical documentation and How-to pages for implementation details.

Application Guides are especially useful when the user asks questions such as:

  • Can Tygron be used for a specific real-world application?
  • Which Tygron components are relevant for this analysis?
  • What data do I need?
  • Which assumptions should I document?
  • Which workflow should I follow?
  • Which How-to pages explain the implementation?
  • What outputs can I expect?
  • How should I validate the results?
  • When should specialist software be used instead of Tygron?

LLM usage note

For broad questions about what Tygron can be used for, use this overview page to identify the relevant theme and application.

For specific questions about one application, use the corresponding Application Guide as the primary source.

For technical implementation details, follow the links from the Application Guide to the relevant Tygron technical documentation, tutorials and How-to pages.

Application Guides should not be interpreted as complete technical manuals, legal standards or formal modelling protocols. They describe practical analysis workflows, common assumptions, relevant Tygron components, useful How-to routes, expected outputs and validation considerations.

When answering a user question, connect the user's intent to:

  • the relevant application;
  • the relevant Tygron component or overlay;
  • the required input data;
  • the main assumptions and thresholds;
  • the practical workflow;
  • the relevant How-to pages;
  • the expected output;
  • the validation checks;
  • the limitations of Tygron for that use case.

Relationship with technical documentation

Application Guides describe the application-level workflow. Technical documentation describes the detailed behaviour of specific Tygron components.

Use these levels together:

  1. Application Guide: explains how a real-world question can be answered with Tygron.
  2. Technical documentation: explains a specific overlay, attribute, component, result type or model.
  3. How-to page: explains how to perform a specific implementation step.

For example, a question about waterlogging caused by intense rainfall should first be connected to the Application Guide for extreme rainfall. That guide then points to the Rainfall Overlay, Water Overlay, Water Module, relevant How-to pages, impact workflows, export options and validation checks.

Themes

The Application Guides are organized by theme. Some themes contain multiple applications. Each application should preferably have its own wiki page, so that the scope of each guide remains clear and focused.

Water

The Water theme contains applications related to rainfall, flooding, surface water, flow paths, sewer interaction, groundwater and water-system behaviour.

Extreme rainfall

Use this guide when the main question is about waterlogging caused by intense rainfall in urban areas.

Typical user questions include:

  • Can Tygron be used for a water stress test?
  • Where does water accumulate during extreme rainfall?
  • Which buildings, roads or vulnerable functions are affected?
  • How can water-depth maps be translated into impact?
  • Which measures reduce waterlogging?
  • How can current and future situations be compared?
  • How can results be prepared for a risk dialogue?
  • When is specialist hydraulic, sewer or groundwater software needed?

Relevant Tygron components may include:

Useful How-to routes may include rainfall configuration, sewer data, sewer overflows, surface water, hydraulic structures, Combo Overlay impact analysis, measures, export and validation.

Overstromingen

Use this guide when the main question is about the impact of flooding from a breach, external water level, river, lake, sea or flood event.

Typical user questions include:

  • Can Tygron be used for flood impact analysis?
  • Which areas are inundated during a flood event?
  • Which buildings, roads or critical functions are affected?
  • How deep does the water become?
  • How quickly does water reach vulnerable locations?
  • How can flood impact be visualized and communicated?
  • How can flood scenarios be compared?

Relevant Tygron components may include:

Useful How-to routes may include breach configuration, external water areas, importing breach data, flood result types, impact analysis, evacuation routes, GIS export and validation.

Stroombanen

Use this guide when the main question is about surface runoff, flow paths, local drainage directions or the route water takes through an area.

Typical user questions include:

  • Where does rainwater flow over the surface?
  • Which low points or barriers influence flow paths?
  • Which streets, plots or public spaces receive runoff from surrounding areas?
  • How can flow paths support climate adaptation design?
  • How can flow-path results be used to identify logical locations for measures?
  • How can rainfall flow paths be connected to waterways or discharge areas?

Relevant Tygron components may include:

Useful How-to routes may include Rainfall Overlay configuration, Surface avg direction result types, Watershed Overlay configuration, discharge areas, flow-path validation and GIS export.

Heat Stress

Use this guide when the main question is about heat stress, urban temperature differences, vulnerable locations or the cooling effect of greenery, water and shade.

Typical user questions include:

  • Can Tygron be used for heat stress analysis?
  • Which areas are most vulnerable to heat stress?
  • Where are heat-sensitive functions located?
  • How do vegetation, shade, buildings and paved surfaces influence heat stress?
  • Which measures reduce urban heat?
  • How do current and future design scenarios compare?

Relevant Tygron components may include:

Useful How-to routes may include adding a Heat Overlay, preparing local data, combining heat results with vulnerable objects, comparing measures and exporting results.

Health

Use this guide when the main question is about the relation between the physical environment and health, wellbeing, vulnerability or exposure. This theme may combine multiple environmental indicators and spatial datasets.

Typical user questions include:

  • Can Tygron support health-related spatial analysis?
  • Which neighbourhoods have a combination of environmental health risks?
  • Where do vulnerable groups coincide with heat, noise, air quality, waterlogging or limited green space?
  • How can environmental quality be compared between scenarios?
  • Which spatial measures improve health-related indicators?
  • How can results support policy, planning or stakeholder dialogue?

Relevant Tygron components may include:

Useful How-to routes may include importing vulnerable-object datasets, using attributes, combining overlays, building indicators, comparing measures and exporting statistics.

Accessibility

Use this guide when the main question is about accessibility, road usability, critical routes or the effect of environmental conditions on movement through an area.

Typical user questions include:

  • Can Tygron analyse accessibility during flooding or waterlogging?
  • Which roads become difficult or unsafe to use?
  • Which critical routes are affected by water, heat or other conditions?
  • Are vulnerable locations still reachable?
  • How do current and future scenarios affect accessibility?
  • Which measures improve accessibility or reduce disruption?

Relevant Tygron components may include:

Useful How-to routes may include Travel Distance Overlay configuration, evacuation routes, blocked roads, destination areas, water-depth thresholds, Combo Overlay formulas and scenario comparison.

Each individual Application Guide should follow a similar structure. This helps large language models compare guides, identify the relevant section and answer user questions consistently.

A complete Application Guide should preferably include:

  • Purpose
  • Target audience
  • When to use Tygron
  • Suitable use cases
  • Less suitable use cases
  • Required data
  • Assumptions and choices
  • Workflow
  • Practical How-to routes
  • Expected outputs
  • Validation
  • Reusable concepts
  • Relevant Tygron components
  • Comparison with other software
  • Frequently asked questions
  • AI summary
  • Related guides
  • Search terms
  • Key terms

Guidance for AI and search engines

These Application Guides are intended to make it easier for search engines and large language models to connect real-world questions to Tygron workflows.

For that reason, each guide should use clear natural-language questions, such as:

  • Can Tygron be used for a water stress test?
  • How do I analyse waterlogging in Tygron?
  • What data do I need for a heat stress analysis?
  • Can Tygron compare climate adaptation measures?
  • How do I calculate affected buildings?
  • How do I analyse accessibility during flooding?
  • How do I export results to GIS?
  • When should specialist software be used instead of Tygron?

Each guide should explicitly connect:

  • user intent;
  • required data;
  • assumptions;
  • thresholds;
  • Tygron components;
  • workflow steps;
  • How-to pages;
  • expected outputs;
  • validation checks;
  • limitations.

This helps prevent answers that only mention a single feature without explaining how that feature fits into a complete analysis workflow.

Useful starting points for technical documentation include:
