RiverNET is the leading software that incorporates HEC-RAS and HEC-2 in AutoCAD. It includes a range of features and capabilities that automates HEC-RAS modeling tasks. Automatic cross section cutting, mapping of roughness values and bank station locations, floodplain mapping, floodway determination, bridges, culverts, and more. RiverNET is used by over 2,500 organizations worldwide.
Automated Floodplain Encroachment Modeling
RiverNET reduces the time for computing floodplain encroachment stations—typically an extensive time-consuming process—to just minutes. The modeler can quickly iterate encroachment station locations while simultaneously reviewing the incremental water surface rise, floodway top width, and flow velocities at each river cross section and on the topo map; to provide the best land development solution for the client. RiverNET allows the modeler to maximize recovery of land for development—gaining significant acreage for their clients in just minutes of work. Once the final floodway locations have been determined, the required HEC-RAS model files can be instantly exported for FEMA submittal along with the completed AutoCAD drawing.
