Tidal information can be determined with Delft Dashboard. Currently, three models are supported: TPXO 6.2, TPXO 7.2 and European Shelf 2008. Data can be exported as Tekal or '*mat' file. Determing Determining the tidal information requires only two steps:

1. Define the area of interest. This can be done in two manners:
   1. Draw a box on the map
   2. Define xmin, xmax, ymin and ymax
2. To view the result:
   1. Click on 'View' to see directly the amplitude and phase of the component chosen in the screen.
   2. Click on 'Export' which will generate a seperate separate Tekal-file. A Tekal-file ('*tek') can be used to used with one of the available post-processors (e.g. Quickplot or Muppet)

Figure: in this example, the amplitude of the N2 component for the coast of West Australia is plotted with Quickplot after being determined by the Tide Database toolbox in Delft Dashboard
