Efficient Model Building in Eastern England

  28/01/2009
Anglian Water and Clear Environmental Consultants have found InfoNet to be ideal for use as a model-building tool in their management of Drainage Area Plans (DAPs). InfoNet has been used in the preparation and processing of manhole surveys, with the data then imported directly into an InfoWorks hydraulic model of an area around Bury St Edmunds. Linking the two Wallingford Software solutions has enabled the team to develop a streamlined approach to building models that is proving far more efficient than traditional, multi-step procedures.

 

Model Building of Water Networks in Eastern Anglia 

Wallingford Software’s asset and data management system, InfoNet, and its integrated modeling solution, InfoWorks CS, were already in use within Anglian Water. Clear and Anglian Water saw the potential for extending the use of InfoNet to help develop the InfoWorks models that are used by Anglian Water to assess existing and future performance of its sewer systems.

They have devised a set of procedures that allows data from the DAPs to be planned and managed within InfoNet before being imported into InfoWorks for further development into a fully-functioning hydraulic model. The approach of using the two Wallingford Software systems has been found to save time, avoid any need for re-keying of information, and allow several technicians to work simultaneously on the data preparation.

Use of Drainage Area Plans

Anglian Water provides drinking water and wastewater services to 2.6 million properties across 27,500 square kilometers (10,400 square miles) of the East Anglian and East Midlands regions of England. Like other UK water companies, Anglian Water uses DAPs as part of its rolling programs to manage wastewater in its cities, towns and villages. The process involves the collection of large amounts of data, including the results of manhole, CCTV and flow surveys. This information is then used to assess the structural and operational conditions of the assets themselves as well as the environmental impacts of combined sewer overflows (CSOs) on water courses.

Seaswarm to Clear out Oil


When an oil spill occurs, the challenge is clearing out of the oil fast and secure. Seaswarm is a possible solution to this dilemma. Robotic cleaning instruments absorb the oil and move independently and autonomously. They can communicate between them and coordinate their actions. The supplier claims the job will be done efefctively.
