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.

Link Population Density from GIS to Network Design

Problem: Current population data from GIS is not automatically used for calculating wastewater flow. Suggestion: Integrate GIS-based population density data with hydraulic calculations, including projections for future urban expansion.

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...

Print Multiple Engineering Profiles at one time

I am working on multiple Storm Drain projects, and it is very tedious to click each profile and print preview, then print to pdf. I'd like to have an option to print multiple profiles at once.

Add a flex table and/or create a summary report (PDF) containing the kinematic flow variables for TR-55 or HEC-22 methods.

The required variables are user entered. None currently are retrieved from the model. Most variables are user defined. Slope and segment values could be populated from the model. We need a table or report for checking the calcs and for legal archi...

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...

Export from SewerGEMS to Civil 3D

We asking for an option to have additional export formats to Civil 3D, where is required exporting the network with using mapping and Part list (Piping, manholes, inlet, etc.). Also to export the profiles created in the SewerGEMS (Auto Profiles) a...

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...
