I have started working with Open flow's applications, and I'm trying find a way to connect between the design, produced by Open-road, and the hydraulic models which are lunched by open flow flood/ civil storm.
It can be practical for re-designed rivers/streamlines, since it saves the process of entering the designed/existing cross-section manually.
(This action can be implemented partially while exporting projects which were designed in Geopak to Hec-Ras, my purpose is stop working with Hec-Ras and find a new alternative, based on Bentley's products).
In general, were can i find some guides for creating new profiles/cross sections along streamlines/rivers in Open flow-flood/Open flow-civil storm applications?
Regards,
Sapir.
Hello Sapir,
Could you please elaborate what kind of projects you are working on and the modeling involved, so we can suggest you better workflow?
OpenRoads designer does support models created in storm - sewer products like CivilStorm so you can model the utilities together. And you can import projects / models from CivilStorm / SewerGEMS into OpenFlows flood as well.
Information on OpenRoads Designer
Are you working on OpenFlows flood currently, since it is best for modeling river flooding?
Here is information on creating profiles in OpenFlows flood and OpenFlows CivilStorm for your reference.
Below video explains how represent results in OpenFlows Flood

Creating profiles in OpenFlows CivilStorm
This tutorial shows an example of a flood modeling that uses an existing CivilStorm/SewerGEMS model and applies OpenFlows FLOOD to calculate the stormwater that enters into the network.
