    What you might try is: 1. Export all customer meters from WaterGEMS using a flextable export to shapefile (make sure to include the current CU-xxx labels). 2. In ArcGIS create a Spatial Join on the exported customer meter shapefile to the property…

    Hello Christen, The default setting for a model is to have the drawing mode set as Scaled. With this setting, the length of the pipe is determined by the length of the line in the drawing and scale that you set in the Options dialog. With this setting…

    Hello Lamyaa, I assume you are using the GVF-Convex (SewerCAD) solver. I tested this in a sample model using the latest version of the application and did not see the issue. Based on that, you may want to consider upgrading to see if that helps. This…

    Don't forget that there might be several different types of node elements which contain the pattern (junctions/hydrants/etc). They each have different tabs in the Demand Center so you would have to filter each tab separately and add them to the selection…

    If there was some simple rule-of-thumb to tell you the sequence of flushes, we would certainly already have it in WaterGEMS. But there are usually many sequences that all produce about the same results. Plus there are multiple reasons you may want to…

    Hello Nastassja, You could create control sets that would basically only use controls in a given scenario. So if a set of pumps is inactive in one scenario, the controls would basically be ignored. A control set is assigned to an Operational alternative…

    The pipes seem to be layed out in series (not parallel), since WaterGEMS is demand driven the demand at (or behind) junction J-1 will determine the flow in both pipes.This flow is equal for both pipes (assuming no demand on junction J6) since there is…

    Hi Dick, Does it work ok if you turn the "[x] Use snapshots option" off? You may need to use the "[x] Create nodes if none found" option - if you aren't importing nodes or you don't have nodes in your model for the pipes to connect to. Rob. This…
