1. Overhaul to the Hyperlinks system to allow attached data to be transportable

   ICM and Infoasset databases offer a system that allow hyperlinked documents to be connected to the database. Primarily this to allow survey, as laid and other background data to be available to the user and is a powerful function that if used correctly would allow databases to become much easier / quicker to check, improving quality and confidence. Currently the models are abstract representations of the systems, and to check detail requires arduous library time retracing other people's steps. Having the data bundled with the model is a significant improvement.

   However, two practical problems arise, since many different organizations work on models over their lifetimes, using their own IT systems, it is currently impossible to maintain the hyperlinks. The hyperlinks are set relative to the "remote files root" which serves an entire master database, thus there would be many files relating to many catchments within the "remote files root" and many models could also reference the same files.

   So the proposal is for Innovyze to develop and dictate a standard directory file structure for the "remote files root" which can then be adopted by everybody wishing to use the function. It would need to be simple, visible in windows and probably reflect the data structure of the master database, the detail of structure is not actually that important, what's important is that everyone adopts the same protocol. Further, a compiling function is needed that would create a transportable data file containing some or all of the attached documents, on receipt the complier would also explode a transportable data file into the remote file root. Thus ensuring that the links are maintained at both ends of the transfer.

2. Enhance import/export of SWMM models for ICM platform

   Enhance model import from SWMM5 INP files to include a few of the Open Data Import Center /Open Data Export Center options:
   • Only update existing records
   • Ignore existing objects
   • Overwrite, Merge, etc.
   • Export Selection only
   Ultimately we want to have a central model copy but have the ability to easily push out and in simple EPASWMM INP files for developers and others. When a new SWMM INP file comes back from another modeler, we’d like a good way to update the existing model from that.
   It would be great if this applied to both SWMM and SIM networks.

   As each INP is a set of physical conditions and event data, the Open Data Import Center imports only the physical network objects.

3. In ICM add AutoCAD layers to usertext1 on import

   When importing from autocad layer mapping can be used to create a model layout for things like 2D Mesh zones but all created objects are null. I have written an SQL to apply parameters to all null mesh zones and roughness zones and import each layer individually. If the autocad layer was written to usertext1 I could import all at once with a saved layer mapping and then enter all parameters by selecting usertext1

   Would it be possible to expand on this request, is this is a projection being referenced, a rainfall grid or something else? Thanks.
