[GRASS-user] Re: Hydraulic Models With GRASS

Hi Users group

Very interesting discussion:

Using Infoworks is a commercial package (very expensive) running with Windows.

There is problably an alternative with "swmm" swmm runs on linux with "wine"
but the source of the swmm-gui en the swmm-hydro-engine is available ( I don't know
its license exactly GPL??)
Possibillity the use of the grass gui interface en the grass database (sqlite or postgis) with the swmm-engine.

Rich,

You can run HEC-RAS, 1-D flow model, freeware, only available for
windows (Gods bless virtual machines) and then you can use r.inund.fluv
(grass addon) to spread the simulation result upon the DEM. Note that in
order to use HEC-RAS you need measures of the river sections.

Joop,

   The HEC-RAS (and possibly other HEC models) will run under wine once I
learn how to do this.

   SWMM runs natively on linux. The GUI is only for Windoze, but the EPA
provides Makefile and instructions for building a console app for linux.
Good for them! Now we need to get other federal and state agencies to do the
same thing.
