Current profiles in WaterGEMS are too flat for clear visualization of network issues. Engineering-style profiles would provide a detailed view, showing pipe sizes, fittings, and key hydraulic data. This would help engineers better understand pressure zones, flow behavior, and elevation changes, making design and troubleshooting easier.
Water Utility Engineers – Better decision-making with clearer visuals.
Design Consultants – Easier placement of pumps, valves, and PRVs.
Hydraulic Modelers – Improved troubleshooting of network issues.
Stakeholders – Clearer understanding for non-technical users.
Detailed Profile View – Shows pipe sizes, node symbols, and key elements.
Pressure & HGL Overlay – Helps identify pressure variations.
Elevation Shading – Highlights high and low points.
Annotations & Data Labels – Displays pressure, flow, and velocity.
Interactive Features – Click or hover for more details.
Export Options – Save profiles in PDF, DWG, or Excel for reports.
Adding engineering-style profiles will make WaterGEMS more effective for network planning and hydraulic analysis.
