GIM and infiltration zones
When rainfall is applied to the 2D mesh with infiltration zones, it would be advantageous to have a GIM module that works with the infiltration zones, their infiltration model (i.e. Horton) and the sewer system to represent rainfall induce infiltration more effectively.

    Hello,
There is already capability to take an infiltration zone in InfoWorks ICM and to route this to the 1D network directly as a contribution. This can be done by using a permeable zone object in conjunction with the infiltration zone (2D) object.
Thanks.

 commentedThis is also relevant for infiltration to rivers (slow response) when modelling direct-2D rainfall.
