[Copy] Make the Drainage Catch Basin Grate Perimeter and Open Area variables reportable

Some DOTs require input of an exact values for catch basin grate open area for orifice flow and catch basin grate perimeter for weir flow. ORD would consider these as calculated values, not inputs. These are not ORD outputs and are hidden from the...

Add the ability to change the order of the Properties categories via Property Grid Customizations

Right now the order of the categories in the Property Editor Tab is predefined by the software and it cannot be rearranged. This can be a nuisance when using smaller monitors or when there are a lot of properties to an element, where you have to s...

Improve Graph Default Interval Increments

Sometimes WaterGEMS seems to have the most peculiar default intervals on graphs on the y-axis. I regularly see intervals of 0.63, 1.25,12.5, and 62.50. All of these tend to obscure the values I actually care about. I would much rather see interval...

Calculate catchment area runoff without an outflow node

Applicable to CivilStorm, StormCADD, and PondPack. Sometimes we only want to calculate the runoff generated by a catchment area. However, catchment areas do not calculate runoff unless a outflow node is specified. White it's not terribly difficult...

Manhole Spacing Based on Pipe Diameter

Problem: The spacing between manholes isn’t automatically related to pipe diameter. Suggestion: Allow the program to adjust spacing between manholes based on the pipe diameter.

Generate Network Routing Scenarios Based on Road Slopes

Problem: Network routing is based solely on the drawn layout, without considering road slopes or the optimal path. Suggestion: Introduce a feature that suggests multiple routing scenarios based on road slopes and shortest paths to the lift station.

Display Natural Ground Elevations with Color Gradients

Problem: It’s difficult to visually identify high and low ground areas during planning. Suggestion: Display natural ground elevations using color gradients to highlight high areas as potential starting points for gravity lines, and low areas as po...

Automated Extraction and Layout of Profiles

Problem: Extracting profiles and placing them on sheets with proper labeling is a time-intensive manual process. Suggestion: Provide an option to automatically extract profiles, arrange them on sheets, and assign appropriate numbers within the sof...

Perform computations using hydrograph peak flows

Allow for hydraulic computations to use the peak flow from hydrographs and instead of the dynamic flows generated from the hydrographs. The software StormShed (which is an allowed software for design use by WSDOT) calculates the peak flow from the...
