Capability to model water distribution network in ICM

Can the function of “ForceMain” in InfoWorks ICM be expanded so that ICM can model the water distribution network. Or the InfoWorks WS function be included in ICM. This is often a requirement when the recycled network and sewer network are to be m...

Asymmetrical Tanks

Currently ICM treats storage areas where there is a change in area at a certain level as symmetrical. This limits hydraulic modelling by constraining the structures that can be built. An option to account for asymmetry would be useful ( similar to...

Add an option to 'apply rainfall' directly to river reach objects

Currently a user would need to define a subcatchment to generate runoff for a river reach. This is okay for 1D models but for 1D/2D models, especially 2d runoff models it adds some additional steps for the user. It would be nice for add a 'apply r...

Enable Data Flags for bed levels and roughness values in river section data

Enable data flagging for the bed level and roughness values within the river cross section data. This information was available in RS and is sorely missed.

InfoWorks ICM needs to number 2D mesh elements using a Hexagon framework or similiar method if this is stormwater design tool of the future

A remesh in a scenario will move mesh element IDs all over the place rendering a new channel useless for design purposes. The maximum wsel equations makes the mesh look like a kalediscope. Uber uses Hexagons to subdivide the world, and I am sugges...

Pump Station Operation Narrative

Would like the ability to add a pump station narrative. For example, a station may have several pumps and varying set points, however those set points do not relate to a specific pump. The station may operate where once the first set point is reac...

Circular sluices/penstocks would also be useful

Similar to the rectangular flap valve request, circular sluices would avoid workarounds trying to estimate the rectangular equivalent to a half closed circular penstock (or worse still a half closed egg shaped penstock)

Calculating volume storage on river reaches

In the application of ICM, we often count the regulation volume of river channels.But at the moment we can only calculatethe total available volume of channels/river reaches between two cross sections by using length and cross sectional areas.If t...

Ability to apply blockage percent

Applying pipe blockage is a standard required in Australia and the functionality in ICM to do this is not user friendly (using blockage links). A simple % pipe blockage in the conduit properties should really be an option. This is particular the c...

Spread automatic inserted vertices in Bank Lines equally

The "Update from ground model" provides the option to “Insert vertices on lines to give maximum spacing of x m”. This is very useful for creating Bank Line vertices at small intervals. It would be helpful if those inserted vertices are spread equa...
