InfoWorks ICM can represent different areas of the same hydraulic model with different levels of detail.
00:09
In this example, you see an integrated model with a representation that varies spatially.
00:15
On the left is a river network that is relatively skeletal in detail.
00:20
The river network is used to route flows and simulate river levels.
00:25
It interacts with the central 2D zone along its boundary.
00:29
At the top and right is a typical 1D sewer system utilizing subcatchments, that route flows toward the center of the model.
00:37
Compare this with the center of the model, which provides a more detailed view of the impact of flooding.
00:45
This area is highlighted with a black background, indicating the location of the 2D mesh.
00:51
In the central area, the 1D network has been connected to the 2D mesh, allowing interaction between the two systems.
00:59
Using this hybrid approach reduces the effort required to create the model,
01:04
while providing the confidence level needed at the desired locations.
01:08
Understanding that models can vary in detail allows you to focus your resources on the parts of the model that you are most interested in,
01:14
while saving effort elsewhere.

InfoWorks ICM can represent different areas of the same hydraulic model with different levels of detail.
On the left is a river network with minimal details. The river network is used to route flows and simulate river levels. It interacts with the central 2D zone.
