WaterGEMS > is a multi-platform hydraulic and water quality modeling solution for water distribution systems with advanced interoperability, geospatial model-building, optimization, and asset management tools. From fire flow and constituent concentration 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. > WaterGEMS users enjoy the power and versatility afforded by working across CAD, GIS, and stand-alone platforms while accessing a single, shared, project data source. With WaterGEMS, utilities and consultants have built-in support for four interoperable platforms, all packaged together in a single product: Windows stand-alone for ease of use, accessibility, and performance, > ArcGIS, AutoCAD, MicroStation, and stand-alone environments within one single product Use LoadBuilder to allocate demands using customer meters, service polygons, and more. WaterGEMSΒ Darwin Calibrator module saves time and money by quickly giving you a calibrated model ArcGIS for GIS integration, thematic mapping, and publishing, > nn n n MicroStation > for bridging geospatial planning and engineering design environments, and AutoCAD for integrated compatibility with the worldΒs most popular CAD platform.Utilities and consultants can share a single dataset using different interfaces, and modeling teams can lever-age the skills of engineers from different departments. Engineers can flatten learning curves by choosing the environment they already know and provide results that can be visualized on multiple platforms. > WaterGEMS ArcGIS interface allows GIS professionals to leverage ESRIs geodatabase architecture to guaran- tee a single dataset for modeling and GIS. They can create, edit, calculate, and visualize WaterGEMS models directly from ArcMap with full access to every hydraulic modeling tool.Engineers can leverage geospatial data, CAD drawings, databases, and spreadsheets to jumpstart the model building process. The included LoadBuilder and TRex modules help engineers allocate water demands and node elevations based on geospatial data helping them avoid potential manual input mistakes and streamline the model building process.WaterGEMS also provides drawing and connectivity review tools to guarantee a hydraulically coherent model. The included Skelebrator > Ү module automatically removes network complexity, while maintaining hydraulic equivalence, to efficiently tackle a wider range of modeling applications. > Perform constituent, water age, tank mixing, and source trace analysis to develop comprehensive chlorination schedules, simulate emergency contamination events, and improve turbidity, taste, and odor by identifying water blending problems in the system. WaterGEMS users can simultaneously model multiple fire flow events across the system to establish the ability of their network to provide protection against fires. > The Criticality Analysis Center is a comprehensive utility to identify critical assets in water distribution infra- structure, and evaluate the risk associated with their failure. Also, by using rule-based operational controls, variable-speed pumping (VSP), and pressure-dependent demands (PDD), engineers can find operational bottlenecks, minimize energy consumption, and model real-time operations to improve system performance. > WaterGEMS Scenario Management Center gives engineers full control to configure, run, evaluate, visualize, and compare an unlimited number of scenarios within a single file. Engineers can easily make decisions by comparing unlimited scenarios, analyzing rehabilitation alternatives for multiple planning horizons, evaluating pump operation strategies, or flushing alternatives for emergency contamination events. > At no additional cost, WaterGEMS includes genetic algorithm optimization modules for automated calibration, design, and rehabilitation. Darwin > Ү Calibrator > evaluates millions of possible solutions to provide a calibrated model that matches flows and pressures measured in the field. Darwin > ٮ Designer > automatically finds maxi-mum-benefit or minimum-cost designs and rehabilitation strategies, based on capital investment, reposition cost, and pressure and velocity constraints. > For more information visit www.bentley.com/WaterGEMS or call 1-800-BENTLEY size="-1">
