leave Layers and Themes window open
Could you make it possible to work in the Geoplan without having to close the Layers and Themes window? It would make switching Layers on and off much easier. Alternatively you could add a separate window to switch layers on and off.

Improvement on the Numerical Correction Process in ICM
The current procedure for ‘Numerical Correction’ in ICM requires users to remove any existing values to calculate the correction (for Preismann and Base flow) before the inbuilt routine is run. If this wasn't made the calculated correction values are added on top of any existing value thereby reducing the total storage in the system. However, the correction for 'Storage Compensation' deletes any existing values before calculating the compensation value. Therefore, there is inconsistency in the approach which has the potential to reduce the total storage at a node. Either, the inbuilt process for 'Numerical Correction' should be revisited or the…

Get time-series values from an existing (rainfall/inflow/level) event in ICM Exchange
In ICM, we can open a rainfall event as graph. However, since we cannot query the time-series data from existing events in ICM Exchange, it's also impossible for us to do any visualization for these events.

Total sediment ( SF1+SF2).
In the result “graph” and “table” window add a new field for “total sediment” which presents the mass flow and the concentration of “sf1”+”sf2”

Buildup and washoff on permeable surfaces.
Pollution buildup and washoff can also happen on pervious area in Innovyze .buildup/washoff model.

Agricultural pollution.
Including agricultural pollution in the model. Such as fertilization and pesticide application. These pollutions can buildup rapidely on the surface and washoff during irrigation and rainfall period. Some common model softwares such as SWAT and WASP have this simulation process.

Water environmental capacity calculation
Add environmental capacity calculation in ICM, user can easily find how much pollution the river can receive at each time step and each river’s total environment capacity during the whole simulatiton.
Water Environmental Capacity Calculation
Background
Water environmental capacity is an essential component of water environmental assessment and must be monitored and managed for economic, engineering, and human health reasons. Many efforts have been made to study methods for the calculation of water environmental capacity. This content reviews available literature on water environmental capacity. The evolutionary history and application scenarios of major water quality models, and water environmental capacity calculation…2 votes -
"jet flow" and agitation (inflow with a certain speed)
In China, efforts are being made to improve black and smelly water bodies. One of the measures is to increase water fluidity to improve water quality through natural purification of water bodies. So there are two measures to increase the fluidity of water body: "jet flow" and agitation. We need to add these two measures to ICM. In one-dimensional river or two-dimensional water body, the simulation of "jet" device is added to realize the setting of an inflow into the model at a certain speed. In a two-dimensional water body, the addition of local agitation facilities can realize the change…

Local water quality settings.
User can set local water quality parameters and local initial condition of Water Quality in ICM rather than globally.
Local WQ parameter should at least contain decay rate, DO process coefficient etc..
As for the local initial condition, DO concentration and other pollutants concentration could be set for each river reach.
For example, for one node or one link it could have a local “decay” in itself. And for the initial condition every node or link can have different intial pollution concentrations.2 votes -
Calculatiton speed with diffusion needs to improve.
Diffusion will seriously slow down the model culculation. But generally the water quality models have to run for several years. With current simulation speed that would be unlikely to do a water quality simulation with diffusion.

Modelling of Septicity
As a sewer modeller I have occasionally been asked about odour generation in sewer networks. I have noticed that DO (dissolved oxygen) and BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) are both inputs in the wastewater and trade-waste model groups of Infoworks ICM SE. Given that these are possible inputs in a sewer model, is it possible to model the consumption of DO by BOD within the network to determine where and when the sewage becomes anaerobic and prone to odour generation? This would be particularly useful if you wanted to model the addition of a high BOD low volume trade waste stream…

Customization of Grid Windows in InfoWorks ICM
Allow custom grid window layouts in InfoWorks ICM, much like the Property window. Allow the user to reorganize the columns, change the column widths, or hide unnecessary columns, and save it as a layout to be applied as a default.

Allow user default sorting of Master Database, and sorting of Layers and Themes properties
In InfoWorks ICM, allow the user to choose the default sorting of the Master Database and allow sorting of the Layers and Themes in Geoplan Properties and Themes.
I would like to be able to have the master database automatically/default sorted based on something else (description/ID/User/Date).
Would also like to sort the Layers & Themes dialogue, as it seems pretty random (not even alphabetical!) and often difficult to find the layer I'm looking for.
