  1. Time varying roughness values for rivers

    As vegetation changes throughout the seasons, it would be great if we could also have time varying roughness patterns for river reaches.

  2. Lateral inflows from event data for rivers

    Currently it is possible to add lateral inflows to a river via subcatchments, if we could also do this directly from event data or TSDB that would be great.

  3. River bank cumulative flow

    It would be great to have the ability to graph bank flows and have a cumulative flow result available.

  4. Multiple river section results

    It would be great if multiple river sections could be selected and if it was then possible to produce multiple object graphs from these and by extension do exports.

  5. Themes for long sections

    It would be great if results could be displayed in the coordinates panel for a cursor which is hovered over a long section with results.

  6. River reach theming

    It would be great if a river reach could be themed individually across the left and right banks and if theming were more flexible for storage areas too.

  7. Bank marker distinctions

    It would be good if cross sections for rivers could be marked with left and right bank markers within the cross sections themselves.

  8. Ground model inference rememebered

    When object entries are updated from ground model, it would be good if the previously used settings could be remembered the next time the dialog is triggered.

  9. Intelligently select nodes in river reaches

    When clicking on a node over a subcatchment, the software can recognise the user is after the node. When the same is done for a node on a river reach, the node is not automatically selected but rather the choice is presented to the user.

  10. Simple means to set initial storage area water surface elevations

    Please incorporate a system for setting initial water surface elevations in storage nodes that works as easily as the process is in XPSWMM or HEC-RAS. The program should hold this water level during warm-up stabilization.

  11. Create preset 2D inflow equation

    Similar to inlet capacity, have the ability to create 2D inflow equations relative to inlet size and control depending on weir or orifice curves. This will allow the user to increase or change 2D inflow control easier and more standardized.

  13. 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.

  15. Interface Utility export efficiency

    Hi Paul,

    Can I make a suggestion regarding the InterfaceUtils.exe utility?

    Seeing that we are now dealing with considerably more rainfall data associated with ARR2016/2019 rainfall & temporal patterns, can Innovyze (or whoever created the abovementioned utility) look at updating the executable such that one doesn’t have to browse for a particular file in the “File name” field. As an alternative, it would be handy if we had the option to simply update the file name manually in the “File name” field and press a “reload button”. Furthermore, it would also be beneficial if there was an additional function to…

  16. Modelling of mud and other non-Newtonian flows

    We've a lot of work at the moment modelling the failure of tailings dams. Tailings dams typically have material that acts in a non-Newtonian manner. To effectively model these sorts of fluids would require the inclusion of additional fluid properties. The Bingham method (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bingham_plastic) has been successfully applied in other applications.

  17. Alert Action Repetition Control - repeat action after alert has been active for Xnr runs

    We have a model set up to process the EA's flood alerts and send out warnings when new ones become active. The model runs every 30 minutes, so we pick up the latest alerts and the repetition control is set to once so people don't become drowned in alerts. I would like to be able, if the EA alert was still active, to repeat this alert 24 hours later - so maybe have an additional repetition control column to repeat the alert after Xnr model runs. So in this case 48 runs would give me my daily repeat of the…

  18. 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…

  19. Use ruby to edit rainfall dialogue box

    Exporting rainfall files to csv for manipulation creates details of the storm events themselves, we would like to be able to change the return periods, durations, multiplying factors shown in the rainfall dialogue editor instead.

  20. User defined results fields

    Can we have user defined results fields? these would allow us to generate time series results that could include the total flows from a series of subcatchments or the total flow going to a node. another example is where we are required to generate a WQ 'score' where the score is a combination of a number of water quality parameters. There would be implications for live modelling as well. We'd be comfortable with having to write a SQL to get what we need.

    RECEIVED  ·  pascal.lang responded

    Thanks for this idea, while it can already be done for themes, extending this out for results generation sounds good. The assumption is that a retrospectively applied SQL to populate User Text 1 with the desired result isn’t sufficient for this requirement?
