  1. Introduction to Integrated Catchment Modelling presented by Andrew Walker

  2. Modeling is now a pre-requisite to understanding the impact of Urban Development Government Directives dictate that Utilities and Cities now strictly control and closely manage their drainage networks.

  3. Understanding the interaction between underground drainage networks, local watercourses and rivers Stormwater models can show street flooding and property impact. River models can predict inundation and overland flood routes.

  4. The ability to simultaneously represent all flow paths is a necessity for integrated studies Requirement : To model “all sources” of flooding. Solution : Fully Integrated Catchment Analysis.

  5. Fully integrated 1D and 2D simulation of above- and below-ground drainage networks in one powerful package The first software in the world to successfully combine these advanced modelling requirements in a single application with one Simulation engine.

  8. InfoWorks ICM (Integrated Catchment Modelling) is the first truly integrated modelling platform to incorporate both urban and river catchments. • Full integration of 1D and 2D modelling techniques. • Below ground and above ground elements of catchments can be modelled as never before. • The hydraulics and hydrology of natural and man-made environments to be incorporated into a single model. • A full understanding of all the processes occurring over the entire catchment can be achieved. • Cost effective, innovative, solutions to engineering challenges can be developed.

  9. Example Models

  10. Calculate overland flow path and likely property inundation

  11. Calculate a hazard rating, based on flood flow velocity, depth and debris potential

  12. Case Study - Calculate cause of property flooding – stormwater or river flooding?
