Prepare TUFLOW FV Working Environment

In this environment we will install the tfv Python package and the modules required to complete common post-processing tasks on TUFLOW FV results.

To open Anaconda Prompt by typing "anaconda prompt" into the Windows Search Bar:

4. Activate the tfv-workspace environment by entering the command: conda activate tfv-workspace as shown below:

We have now setup our Python environment and are ready to start reviewing model results via Jupyter notebooks and we can return to the TUFLOW FV Python Toolbox page.
