Kurdistan Regional Government Selects InfoWater

The networks comprise a total of approximately 2,700km of water mains. The models will be used to optimise capital planning and determine cost-effective system expansion and improvement strategies aimed at ensuring a safe, stable water supply. The improved water supplies will also contribute to social and economic rehabilitation in Iraq.

"Network modelling is one of the most powerful and viable means of developing sound, cost-effective and reliable solutions for managing complex water infrastructures," said Adel AbouJaoude, Ph.D., associate and environmental engineering department manager at engineering and utility solutions provider Khatib & Alami. "The ArcGIS-centric solutions delivered by Innovyze are the easiest, fastest, and most powerful engineering GIS modelling and design software we've seen or used."

With direct support to geodatabases, the network modelling and design technology of InfoWater software addresses every facet of water utility infrastructure management, operation, and protection, delivering the highest rate of return in the industry. Drawing on the most advanced hydraulic and water quality simulation and geospatial analysis technologies, the software effortlessly reads GIS datasets, corrects network topology problems and data flaws, extracts pertinent modelling information, and reliably constructs credible network models with speed. Once models have been established, users can run and simulate various conditions, pinpoint system deficiencies, and determine the most cost-effective physical and operational improvements to achieve optimum performance and regulatory compliance while improving community relations.
