Engineers and designers using Civil 3D for water distribution system design need to be able to verify the hydraulic adequacy of their designs quickly and efficiently in InfoWater Pro. There is currently no means by which to exchange Pressure Network data between the two platforms without following varying multi-step processes, which can introduce error. Since both are Autodesk products, please consider adding interoperability features to Civil 3D and InfoWater Pro
For those interested in this feature, would it be valuable to have a tool to export CIvil 3D pressure networks to EPANET INP format as a means of data transfer to InfoWater Pro for until we have a better permanent solution at the platform level?
Here is an open-source GitHub project providing a DLL you can load into Civil 3D for data exchange. Check the ReadMe file for details, and please reach out if you have any issues, comments, or requests!
