In Figure 6, it is possible to observe the results obtained with MODCEL – RASTER, in a solid black line, and the results obtained with MODCEL – Quasi-2D, in a dashed black line, together with other model results published in the benchmarking document, which are presented in the background of this graphic. Among these models, MikeFlood (DHI 2020) and Infoworks (InfoWorks 2015) were chosen as reference examples for a more detailed comparison, highlighting the adherence of the results obtained with MODCEL. The comparisons for water levels simulated at the pre-defined control points in the modelled mesh, considering MODCEL, MikeFlood and Infoworks, is shown in Table 2. The differences, in general, were not significant.
