GISRed is a customized extension to ArcView GIS 3.2 oriented to the modeling and calibration of water distribution networks which integrates all the capabilities of the widely used hydraulic modeling software EPANET 2.0.

The reduced version offers:

• A total integration ArcView GIS 3.2 - EPANET 2
• CAD, Shapefile and EPANET Import
• Real-time automatic TOPOLOGY generation
• Network Connectivity Check (detection of unconnected parts of the network and spanning tree)
• Use of Pipe material(eg. for calibration purposes)
• Hydraulic and Quality Property Editors
• Control rules, Curve and Pattern Editors
• Editing tools, Group Edit
• Spatial Analysis: Automatic elevation Interpolation
• Network Queries (Themes classified by diameter, roughness, demand, elevation,…)
• Interactive Overview Map
• Interactive themes (street theme, auxiliary element theme,…) and (CAD, aerial photographs, etc)
• Connection with the EPANET 2 toolkit to perform extended period simulation of hydraulic and quality behaviour
• Retrieval and presentation of simulation results
• Management of multiple simulation scenarios

At this point, the reduced version does not offer the following functionalities:

• Automatic Demand Allocation
• Automatic Calibration using genetic algorithms
• Spatial verification tools
• Error Navigator

This project has been developed within the REDHISP group which belongs to the Institute of Water & Environmental Engineering of the Polytechnic University of Valencia.
