SewerGEMS > is a fully-dynamic, multi-platform, sanitary and combined sewer modeling solution. Engineers can analyze sanitary or combined conveyance sewer systems using built-in hydraulic and hydrology tools and a variety of wet-weather calibration methods. From urban sewer planning to overflow remediation analysis, to optimized Best Management Practices designs, SewerGEMS provides an easy-to-use environment for engineers to analyze, design, and operate sanitary and combined sewer systems. > Users of SewerGEMS enjoy the power and versatility afforded by working across CAD, GIS, and stand-alone platforms while accessing a single, shared, project data source. With SewerGEMS, 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 for GIS integration, thematic mapping, and publishing, MicroStation > Create models easily using your choice of the stand-alone, MicroStation, ArcGIS, or AutoCAD platforms SewerGEMS provides a broad range of tools for estimating and allocating sewer loadings SewerGEMSΒ full dynamic engine allows to evaluate systems for surcharges and overflows nn n n for bridging geospatial planning and engineering design environments, andAutoCAD 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 leverage 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. > The ArcGIS interface in SewerGEMS allows GIS professionals to leverage ESRIs geodatabase architecture to guarantee a single dataset for modeling and GIS. They can create, edit, calculate, and visualize SewerGEMS models directly from ArcMap with full access to every hydraulic and hydrology modeling tool.Engineers can leverage geospatial data, CAD drawings, databases, and spreadsheets to jumpstart the model building process. SewerGEMS provides synchronized database connections, geospatial links, and advanced model-building modules that connect with virtually any digital data format. SewerGEMS also provides drawing and connectivity review tools to guarantee a hydraulically coherent model. > The Scenario Management Center in SewerGEMS 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 to evaluate design, operational, sanitary loading and even network topology strategies for better decision-making support. > The LoadBuilder > ҙ module included in SewerGEMS helps engineers allocate sewer loads based on a variety of GIS-based sources such as customer water use billing data, area-wide flow measurement or polygons with known population or land use. Sewer loading in SewerGEMS can also be applied as user-defined hydrographs, pattern-based loads, and unit loads. Engineers can access and customize the comprehensive unit (dry weather) load engineering library with numerous typical unit loads based on population, area, count, and discharge. SewerGEMS also allows users to input and save an unlimited number of flow patterns, to accurately model flow changes over the course of a day.In addition engineers can load models with wet weather runoff flows derived from precipitation, using the built-in rainfall distributions in SewerGEMS, or user-defined rainfall events. Runoff flows are modeled and calibrated using a choice of hydrograph methods, including RTK, SCS, Modified Rational, EPA-SWMM, or user-defined generic unit hydrographs. > The two dynamic engines of SewerGEMS account for storage effects within structures and quantify overflows should they occur. The flexibility of choosing between the EPA-SWMM engine as well as an extremely fast, stable implicit engine to solve the complete set of wave components behind the Saint Venant equations gives added comfort to those modelers that are accustomed to modeling with SWMM and familiar with its capabilities and limitations. > For more information visit www.bentley.com/SewerGEMS or call 1-800-BENTLEY size="-1">
