InfoWorks ICM Product detailsInfoWorks ICM Product details
Subgrid Sampling
You now have the option to use larger mesh elements in your model while still capturing highly accurate and detailed topographical changes in your surface, leading to faster and more accurate simulations.
2D mesh histograms
Easily identify any 2D mesh element areas that are smaller than the specified minimum element size, making the model troubleshooting process more efficient.
RPA report export to Info360
While running RPA reports, easily understand how a drainage system will perform under various rainfall conditions in relation to asset management data.
InfoWorks ICM Viewer
You can now view model data and analyze existing results in InfoWorks ICM using the new Autodesk InfoWorks ICM Viewer. You do not need an Autodesk licence to use it, but you will need an Autodesk account.
Copying cloud simulation results
You can now copy simulation results from a run in a cloud database whose full results have been downloaded, to a transportable database version 2024.5 or newer. This lets you share the results between cloud and on-premise databases, or with other users, by copying the results from the transportable to an on-premise database.
CNSWMM infiltration for 2D simulations
A new infiltration model, CNSWMM, combines the CNSWMM curve number model with initial losses.
Cloud enhancements
InfoWorks ICM users can now access results faster than ever with direct access to cloud simulation results. Interrogate and export some cloud results without downloading the full time-series results. Scalar and spatial time series data (TSD) objects are now available in cloud databases.
Concurrent installation
InfoWorks ICM 2026 brings more flexibility to how you work. Users now have the flexibility to install Innovyze and Autodesk versions of software, including ICMLive and InfoAsset Manager.
2D culvert modeling
A new conduit option, Culvert 2D, enables users to link 2D culverts to multiple mesh elements inside a model, providing a more robust 2D option for representing culverts in a floodplain.
Civil 3D integration
Civil 3D designers can now easily share designs with hydraulic modelers. Export a sanitary and storm sewer pipe network into InfoWorks ICM, run simulations on the network model, and make adjustments where needed. Then, transfer these changes back to the model in Civil 3D for a streamlined planning and design process.
XP Importer
You can now move an existing XPSWMM model into InfoWorks ICM in a matter of a few clicks with our XP Importer.
FEH2022 design rainfall events
A new design rainfall generator, FEH2022, allows users to download rainfall data as XML files from the Flood Estimation Handbook web service, and import them into InfoWorks ICM using the Rainfall Generator dialog.
SWMM engine
The SWMM networks now have the option to use the latest 5.2.2 engine (for databases 2024.0 and above).
River bankline creation
Efficiently create river banklines from end sections by truly following the centerline.
Workgroup model management
Teams can work together in a shared space to create unified models that are complete and accurate.
Integrated 1D and 2D modeling
Model complete drainage systems including sewers, surface water, rivers, and floodplains, supporting sewer and flood workflows across planning, design, and operations.
Powerful hydraulic simulation
Fast, robust, stable, and efficient dynamic simulation engine offers accurate representation.
Prepare for events
Address sanitary sewer overflows and combined sewer overflows through emergency storm simulations.
Live operational support
InfoWorks ICM allows any live data to be used within the background of a comprehensive utility network model.
Data inferencing
Run models accurately with built-in inferencing tools that fill in missing elements from raw survey data.
SQL and other scripts
SQL queries and Ruby Scripts automate processes such as creating new scenarios, saving you time.
GPU utilization
Using GPUs can speed up simulations 12 times or more with large models.
RAFTS hydrology
The RAFTS Australian hydraulic routing method links directly with the ARR data hub and Australian BOM.

1Cloud databases and simulations are only available with Autodesk supplied licenses and installers. 2A Workgroup Data Server (WDS) is an optional component that manages access to workgroup on-premise databases. It is not required for standalone or cloud databases. Although optional, it is recommended when there is more than one user that accesses the same database. The WDS is normally installed on a different machine than the one ICM is installed on. 3A Remote Agent is a dedicated high-performance machine that is primarily used to run simulations. Using a Remote Agent is optional but is recommended if you want to run and execute simulations faster than would be possible on machines where ICM, and other software, is also installed. Remote Agents are not available with Autodesk supplied licenses. However, you can still use a Remote Agent when your users are using Autodesk supplied ICM licenses if the Remote Agent uses an Innovyze supplied Thales type of ICM license.
Notes: The installers that install the Innovyze licensed products continue to also install 32-bit versions of the software.
The software is not supported on the Intel Itanium architecture and on the ARM architecture, and will not run on and cannot be installed on Windows RT or Windows 10 S.
It may be necessary to update the Microsoft .NET framework before installing the software if you are installing desktop client software.
When interfacing to third-party software including GIS products and SCADA systems, and when using Oracle and SQL Server databases, you need to ensure that the software is supported by its vendor on the platform you are using.
Within that constraint, versions of Oracle and SQL Server supported are Oracle 18c and 19c and SQL Server 2016, 2017 and 2019.
