What is Autodesk InfoWater Pro?

Engineers use Autodesk InfoWater Pro to model water distribution systems in an easy-to-use geographic information system (GIS) interface.

  • Leverage spatial analysis tools available in ArcGIS Pro to help with hydraulic model building and management.

  • Analyze and understand your water distribution system, including criticality analysis, pressure transient events, and leakage modeling.

  • Present results clearly and share them in ArcGIS Online.

Features to support your creativity

Model within ArcGIS Pro

Use geospatial tools to efficiently build and edit models, present results, and generate maps.

Model-telemetry connection

Be more confident in your model by connecting external telemetry data for continuous verification.

What-if scenarios

Create, analyze, and compare what-if scenarios to understand the impact of model modifications.

Pressure zone schematic

Quickly view the entire model in a schematic view and get a performance summary of each zone.

Pressure-dependent demand

Get more realistic results during outage simulations with water models.

Fire flow analysis

Easily confirm fire flow capacity by evaluating and improving the readiness of the water supply to fight fires, locally or in the cloud.

"Creating an accurate transient model with InfoWater Pro allowed us to understand the dynamics of the entire system ... and perform what if scenarios without actually going into the field to try things with experimentation."

Questions? We have answers.

Autodesk InfoWater Pro is a hydraulic modeling application built in ArcGIS Pro that allows users to simulate countless scenarios and perform a wide range of analyses, including fire flow, valve criticality, pipe break, water quality, system curves, and energy usage.

Water engineers from water utilities and engineering firms use Autodesk InfoWater Pro to plan, design, and operate water systems.

Autodesk InfoWater Pro is typically used by GIS practitioners looking to answer hydraulic questions. They can easily model water networks from within the familiar ArcGIS Pro and take advantage of spatial analysis and visualization tools.

Autodesk InfoWorks WS Pro is used by engineering teams that don’t require ArcGIS, especially if multiple modelers are on the engineering team. It also provides advanced modelers with the ability to explore scripting to automate model maintenance and the import of data from different sources.
