With OpenFlows WaterGEMS, you can work across CAD, GIS, and stand-alone platforms while accessing a single, shared project data source.

OpenFlows WaterGEMS is a hydraulic modeling application for water distribution systems with advanced interoperability, geospatial model building, optimization, and asset management capabilities.

You can use OpenFlows WaterCAD out of the box or as a stand-alone application or access it from within AutoCAD (as an additional integration option). Regardless of the platform, OpenFlows WaterCAD maintains a single set of modeling files for true interoperability across platforms. The stand-alone interface offers unparalleled versatility with easy-to-use model layout tools, multiple background support, conversion utilities from CAD, GIS, and databases, and unlimited undo and redo layout.

HAMMER uses the Method of Characteristics (MOC) – the benchmark standard for hydraulic transient flow analysis. The MOC computes results at intermediate points along the pipeline, accurately capturing critical outcomes (such as mid-pipe negative pressures) that could otherwise be overlooked.

Superior interoperability. With OpenFlows SewerGEMS, utilities and consultants can model from within several platforms while accessing a single, shared project data source.

The robust OpenFlows PondPack analysis engine computes outlet rating curves with tailwater effects, accounts for pond infiltration, calculates pond detention times, analyzes channels, and performs interconnected pond routing with divergent (multiple) outfalls.

You can use OpenFlows StormCAD as a stand-alone application, or you can work directly within MicroStation® CONNECT Edition, OpenRoads™, OpenSite®, or OpenRail™ Designer, while an additional integration option lets users model directly in AutoCAD. OpenFlows StormCAD’s stand-alone interface offers easy-to-use model layout tools, multiple background support, including Bing aerial imagery, conversion utilities from CAD, GIS, and databases, and the use of terrain models to dynamically update node ground elevations, display surface contours and profiles, and design conduit inverts using real topography.

OpenFlows CivilStorm performs comprehensive analysis of all aspects of stormwater systems, including rainfall, runoff, inlet capture and bypass, gravity and pressure piping, ponds, outlet structures, open channels, culverts, and more. Engineers can analyze pressure and free-surface flow conditions for networks of channels and closed conduits, model complex pond outlets for a variety of tailwater conditions, and use weirs, orifices, culverts, risers, and inlet boxes in their design, all within a single product.

OpenFlows FLOOD is a complete flood modeling application that helps you understand and mitigate flood risks in urban, riverine, and coastal systems.

Data entry and manipulation is flexible and straightforward. Users of OpenFlows CulvertMaster can simply enter data in clearly labeled fields with full context-sensitive assistance and the ability to click to calculate. Design and analysis models can be navigated quickly, using tabbed dialog worksheets to edit watershed data, tailwater conditions, profile information, and more. With OpenFlows CulvertMaster, engineers can conveniently organize all the designs and analyses for the same project within a single file.

With OpenFlows FlowMaster, engineers can solve for any unknown property, design for any desired characteristic, and produce detailed reports and rating curves on the fly. OpenFlows FlowMaster’s flexible interface lets users work on multiple projects simultaneously, organize their worksheets in folders, and save them for future use. The software also enables users to configure toolbars and dock windows to create work environments that match their workflows.
