"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.

Expanded Arithmetic Functions in the Statistics Templates for Events
"We are exploring possibilities of doing some post-processing within Infoworks. Right now, we are looking for an option that would summarize CSO volume with an offset instead of threshold; i.e. instead of ignoring anything smaller than a threshold and counting everything greater than that as a whole we want it to subtract a certain amount"

Refine FHWA junction losses
There are some improvements that can be made to FHWA junction losses based on experimental results provided by Wood Rodgers.

improve print functionality
The print functionality in ICM could be improved very much (printing to PDF files). It takes at the moment a lot of time and even then it is not possible to easily (and flexible) fit a selection to the chose page setup (size) for example. Or fit a complet network to the chose paper size.
Of course using snipping tool is a workaround sometimes, However this is not suitable in many cases.
To my opinion a package like ICM needs a working functionality to export results to PDF in a proper and nice manner for reporting.

split network results lines
it would be great if the "splitting lines" function can be applied to network results lines too, which would help a lot if we need to break up a large amount of NRLs into multiple segments rather than redrawing them.

Cumulative flow for comparison (via Result> Graph Report>Location/Simulation report
When producing flow comparison in InfoWorks ICM (via Result> Graph Report>Location/Simulation report) please add the cumulative flow (dynamically for the visible range). Currently this is available only for Graphing any single pipe. And also give option to check/uncheck any given time series visibility when more than 2 hydrograph is compared. Also, It appears ‘Statistics Blocks’ font size/style cannot be altered.

Different shape sluice or pipe/orifice closure option
We usually model closed gates as sluices, as they are the ones that can easily be closed (by setting the height to zero). The downside of this is that it can only be a rectangle (and it usually closes off a round pipe). An orifice now has the nice option to set it at either circular or rectangular, but closing it is not possible (setting the flow limit to zero would make sense here, but doesn’t work). Is it possible to do something about that? In WSPro you have the nice checkbox Close Pipe for all objects, that would come…

RTC - Allow data to be pasted into tables and it automatically generate the rows
The only way to add new rows to an RTC Table is to manual click on them - if would be better if you could paste a large number of rows from Excel and it auto-generates the rows in the same way as when pasting data into the Inflow table.

Simplify the Ground Water Model
Simplify the InfoWorks Ground Water model Or GIM by using only the Ground layer instead of two layers Soil and Ground.
Don’t use the soil store component of the GIM.
Innovyze, please simplify the conceptual design of the GIM by reducing it to one layer.

Compare WWG and TWG files
A tool to compare different WWG files and TWG files and report on the differences, similar to the Compare functionality for Networks.

Scenario assigned 'official' ID numbers within software
I would like for scenario names to be prefixed with a built-in ID number, in the same way that model commits have official version numbers, and wastewater and trade waste profiles have ID numbers. ICM clearly tracks ID numbers behind the scenes, since it is able to keep the scenarios in the same order (rather than sorting them alphabetically or similar).
When specifying exactly which 'model' was used to produce a set of simulation results, it is necessary to specify network ID, version ID and scenario ID - so it would be helpful to be able to just point to…

compatibility with WMTS servers
Compatibility with WMTS servers for the GIS layer control would be very urgent. Right now a lot of data is only to project from WMTS servers.

Assign wastewater and tradewaste profiles for special dates
I would like to see that InfoWorks ICM has a feature that allows the user to be able to assign wasterwater/tradewaste profiles to special dates in a calendar year, for example, statutory holidays. Those special dates can be defined by the user. This is important when running a long period simulation for wet weather flow calibration, where a large storm event (and corresponding I&I) occurred on a statutory holiday which is not a weekend. Dry weather flow pattern for a statutory holiday is typically closer to a weekend pattern than a weekday. The user has the option to assign a…

Classic view property sheet
The classical lay out of object properties (property sheet in CS) in a separate window with different tabs i really did find easier to view and edit models.
Also the cross section view of a link and manhole vertical section were really usefull parts to visualize the model in parts.
I would really appreciate if the old way of presenting model parts would be optionally brought back into the package.1 vote -
Network overview window: split up of subcatchment areas with different runoff id
It would be very usefull to have in the Network Overview window a summation of the different subcatchment areas, sort by Runoff surface ID.

ICM - Import of .XP files
Current workflow for importing a XPRAFTS or XPSWMM/XPSTORM model into ICM is to export the XP model to a .XPX file. This is problematic as a user will need to own a XP licence to complete this step and is not always the case. This is particularly an issue for those that wish to update or migrate XPRAFTS models as the software is no longer being sold.

Disabling Link Label in 3D MH
In 3D MH window and visualization, to add feature to show or remove links label. I suggest removing the labels as a future feature for ICM.
