Integration of your hydraulic modeling software with the leading GIS platforms like ArcGIS is essential to deliver an optimal and accurate water network design. Does your current modeling software allow you to integrate with GIS platforms, the way OpenFlows WaterGEMS does?
OpenFlows WaterGEMS is a hydraulic modeling application for water distribution systems with advanced interoperability, geospatial model building, optimization, and asset management capabilities.
From fire flow and water quality analyses to energy consumption and capital cost management, WaterGEMS provides an easy-to-use environment for engineers to analyze, design, and optimize water distribution systems.
The integration of ArcGIS Pro and WaterGEMS allows you to seamlessly analyze and design your water distribution system leveraging the GIS capabilities such as advanced geographic maps in the native ArcGIS Pro functionality.
From modeling to results to schematics, you can visualize everything in your GIS platform. The latest version of WaterGEMS can run within ArcGIS Pro, and this upgrade comes at no additional cost for SELECT users.
If you have ArcGIS Pro on your computer, when you install the latest version of WaterGEMS, it will automatically integrate with it.
The integration allows you to work on new or existing WaterGEMS models in ArcGIS. Once you add or create a hydraulic model to use in WaterGEMS for ArcGIS Pro, the workflow for adding and editing model elements and computing a model will be similar to working in WaterGEMS Standalone.
The seamless interoperability of WaterGEMS with multiple platforms distinguishes Bentley from its competitors. ArcGIS Pro is one of several platforms supported, with the others being MicroStation, AutoCAD, ArcMap, and the popular standalone interface.
There is no additional cost for any of these integrations with WaterGEMS— everything is included, assuming you have the platform available on your machine.
