Produce Optimal Urban Sewer Planning and Overflow Remediation Analysis Designs
Model from within several platforms while accessing a single, shared project data source.
WHAT IS OPENFLOWS SEWERGEMS?
OpenFlows SewerGEMS enables you to produce optimal urban sewer planning and overflow remediation analysis designs in an easy-to-use environment. You can design and operate sanitary or combined conveyance sewer systems by using built-in hydraulic and hydrology capabilities with a variety of dry- and wet-weather calculation methods. Better understand surface flood depth and velocity, flood hazard, and inundation times with the new user-friendly 1D/2D hydraulic analysis capability.
Access A Single, Shared Project Data Source
Collaborate without surrendering individual skills, maintaining a single modeling data set without restrictions. Model within Windows, ArcGIS, AutoCAD, OpenRoads, OpenSite, or OpenRail.
1D/2D Hydraulic Analysis
User-friendly tools connect 1D network elements with 2D surface flows. Better understand surface flooding depth and velocity, flood hazard, and inundation times, and communicate this information to stakeholders with versatile mapping and reporting tools.
Understand Results More Easily
Spot bottlenecks and potential surcharging with animated 3D graphs and profiles. Use color coding, element symbology, and annotation to visualize input and results.
Easy Model Management With Scenarios
Configure, evaluate, visualize and compare an unlimited number of scenarios within a single file.
Leverage Existing Data
Use your CAD drawings, GIS files, SWMM, SCADA data, databases, and spreadsheets to jumpstart the model-building process.
Input And Save Unlimited Flow Patterns
Model flow changes over the course of a day. Load models with wet weather runoff flows from precipitation using built-in rainfall distributions or user-defined rainfall events.
OpenFlows SewerGEMS is a superset of OpenFlows SewerCAD, CivilStorm and StormCAD.

User Quote
"The new 1D/2D functionality in OpenFlows SewerGEMS is a powerful tool for flood modeling and hydraulic analysis of stormwater systems overflowing. The user-friendly interface and intuitive surface grid creator make working with real surface areas easy and fun. It provides comprehensive visualization options, both with in-built and external tools. As we deal with climate change, it is imperative to be able to prepare for new challenges in water retention in both urban and city environments.."

Choose What is Right for You
One-year license with training
Virtuoso Subscription – A popular choice for small and medium-sized businesses
Get access to software that comes with training – fast! Bentley’s eStore, Virtuosity, offers a convenient way to lease a 12-month license of Bentley software for a low, upfront cost. Every online purchase through Virtuosity comes as a Virtuoso Subscription that includes training and auto-renewals.
With no contract required, it’s easy to get started quickly.
One-time purchase with support
Perpetual License with SELECT
A perpetual license of Bentley software is a one-time purchase, with a yearly maintenance subscription, called SELECT. This includes 24/7/365 technical support, learning resources, and the ability to exchange licenses for other software once a year. With SELECT, you will benefit from:
- License pooling, so you can access your software from multiple computers.
- Access additional Bentley software with Term Licenses, which allow you to pay for what you use without the upfront cost of purchasing a perpetual license.
