GeoSWMM Menu

Outline

The GeoSWMM tab consists of several options. Each option allows the GeoSWMM user to comprehensively develop and manage the storm or wastewater network model information. The GeoSWMM tab items are illustrated in Table 5.1 with a brief description of their individual functionalities.

Project Menu

Tool Icon

Tool Name

Function

New

New

Creates a new GeoSWMM project geodatabase.

open

Open

Opens an existing GeoSWMM project geodatabase.

save

Save

Saves the changes made in a GeoSWMM project and stores the information in an existing geodatabase.

save as

Save As

The changes made to the project will be saved as another project defined by the user.

Save A Copy

Save A Copy

In this case, any changes made to the geodatabase after opening is not saved. Rather only a copy of the previous version is saved in the user defined path.

Close

Closes a GeoSWMM project and removes it from ArcGIS Pro map TOC.

Reload

Reload

Reloads the geodatabase contents into the GeoSWMM project data.

Simulation and Post Processing Tools Menu

Run

Run

Executes model simulation.

Generate Flood Map

Generate Flood Map

Generate flood boundary layer and flood depth raster.

Enable 2D Modeling

2D Modeling

A collection of tools which streamline the process from define boundary condition to creation of the required layers and attributes for 2D modeling sequentially.

Enable 2D Modeling

Enable 2D Modeling

Enables 2D modeling at the same GeoSWMM 1D project workspace.

Define Boundary Layer

Define Boundary Layer

Assists in defining; e.g. create, import, edit boundary layer along with hydrologic and hydraulic parameters within which all 2D layers generate.

Create 2D Nodes

Create 2D Nodes

Generates 2D node points using the attributes assigned in Boundary Layer.

Create 2D Layers

Create 2D Layers

Creates 2D network, i.e., Junction, Conduits, Cell taking into account obstructions, boundary layer extent, and generated 2D nodes and populates corresponding attributes necessary for 2D model simulation.

Connect 1D-2D

Connect 1D-2D

Connects 1D network with 2D network based on available options, i.e., weir, orifice, direct connection.

Generate Flood Raster

Generate Flood Raster

Creates Max. Water Surface Elevation Raster and Max. Flood Depth Raster based on 2D model results at a desired workspace.
