Model Builder Ruby Script in InfoWorks WS Pro

Building a hydraulic model can be a cumbersome error-prone process, even when modelers are leveraging their GIS data.

InfoWorks WS Pro already provided modelers with tools to map GIS attributes with modeling fields, so they could import GIS objects from a Shapefile for example. This process is not always straightforward due to GIS not needing to handle water system objects hydraulically. This means that most of the time, modelers have to find ways to ensure network connectivity, such as identifying unconnected nodes, links with zero lengths, and direction of pumps and valves, among many other issues that can come up during this process.
