InfoDrainage features

Sustainable and traditional drainage design

Create designs for traditional and sustainable drainage (SuDS), with tailored reports for compliance and faster review cycles.

Digital twins for drainage design

Support reviews by showing the accurate-to-reality extent of a pond, how the underdrain connects swales, and the exact lengths of pipes.

Civil 3D integration

Reduce rework and manual data transfer with integrated data exchange and round-tripping support to maintain 3D models for BIM compliance.

Analyze flows and flooding

Use built-in detailed hydraulic analysis for pipes, manholes, storage, and green infrastructure to reduce the risk of flooding downstream.

Templated designs

Speed up the design process and standardize submissions across teams with drag-and-drop templates set up to meet regulatory compliance.

Validate mistakes rapidly

Use validation to quickly spot highlighted errors and read warnings, with potential solutions proposed, reducing review cycles and rework.

"All that work you've already done in CAD ... you can pull that directly out of InfoDrainage and into the model, and that saves an astronomical amount of time."

— Jess Ewing, Project Manager, VHB

"We were able to put the surface model into InfoDrainage, set the parameters of the deluge, and it told us exactly what we needed."

— Michael Clark, Director of Field Engineering, Rogers O'Brien

"InfoDrainage's graphical profiles made getting customer buy-in and approval way easier."

— Andrew Carrier, Project Engineer, Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson
