Add ability to use custom curve number tables other than the default TR-55

Many jurisdictions publish their own set of curve numbers for different land uses which they will expect to see during plan review. The local curve number sets often differ from TR-55. Please allow us to build custom curve number sets based on lan...

Adding interception and evaporation losses to Permeable Pavements, Bioretention systems etc.

There is currently no option to consider depression storage, interception and evaporation losses while modelling SuDS components such as Permeable Pavements, Bioretention systems etc in InfoDrainage. The option was available in MicroDrainage and i...

Add Snowmelt to InfoDrainage

The addition of SWMM5 snowmelt will make it easier to model LID's in North America which has a lot of snowfall in Canada and the northern USA. Snowmelt can be a significant source of water annually to a LID or SuDS.

Variable baseflow

(Could also be considered hydraulics) On large scale projects where we may have limited information and funding, we assume baseflow values through an upstream point inflow. It would be beneficial to have a variable baseflow input per design storm....
