Using InfoNet to build InfoWorks CS hydraulic models
, Sep 1, 2010
Water utilities are now using MWH Soft’s InfoNet database and network management solution to monitor data, which has in turn enabled digital models of these networks to be created in a more efficient way. The advantages of using InfoNet to build digital models, compared to the traditional option of importing data directly into InfoWorks CS, are being demonstrated in a project undertaken for the town of Drogheda in Ireland.
Impact of Network Simplification and Digital Terrain Models on Flood Risk Assessments
Stephen Kenney - MWH
Stephen Kenney (MWH) provides an overview of a study looking at the impact of network simplification and digital terrain models on flood risk assessments. As the water industry moves towards a risk based approach to flood modeling the question emerges as to whether existing models are suitable for this purpose. During the study a series of de-simplified models were created to look at flow, but also the surcharge levels that are key to flood risk. Stephen explains how the models were created and shows how in the case of this study the methodology led to a 44% increase in model confidence.
