Watergems tutorial
Use hydraulic model results to help optimize the design of complex water distribution systems and utilize built-in scenario management features to keep track of design alternatives. Leverage and import virtually any external data format, which maximizes ROI on geospatial and engineering data, and automate terrain extraction and node allocation. Jumpstart the model-building process and manage your model effectively, so that you can focus on making the best engineering decisions. OpenFlows WaterCAD/WaterGEMS automatically generates network segments once the isolation valve data is supplied. Evaluate the ability to isolate portions of the system and serve customers using different valve locations. Design improvements such as the sizing and location of pipes, pumps, and tanks in order to meet fire-flow and protection requirements.įind the weak links in water distribution systems and assess the adequacy of isolation valves. Use a water distribution hydraulic model to access and identify where fire protection is inadequate. Use OpenFlows WaterGEMS to also run your model from within ArcGIS and for optimization modules (calibration, design, pump scheduling, pipe assessment, SCADA integration, and network simplification). OpenFlows WaterCAD is a subset of OpenFlows WaterGEMS. You can also choose to use OpenFlows WaterCAD as a stand-alone application, for additional flexibility.
