Intergraph announces StormWorks Version 7.1.HUNTSVILLE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 6, 1997--Intergraph Software Solutions today introduced StormWorks(TM), a new storm drainage product that provides modeling, design and analysis for stormwater collection and transport. StormWorks will be available second quarter 1997 on Microsoft Windows See Windows. (operating system) Microsoft Windows - Microsoft's proprietary window system and user interface software released in 1985 to run on top of MS-DOS. Widely criticised for being too slow (hence "Windoze", "Microsloth Windows") on the machines available then. NT(R) and Windows(R) 95. The announcement was made at the International Intergraph Graphics Users Group (IGUG) conference. "StormWorks complements Intergraph's civil engineering product line," said Dr. Eddie F Edward "DJ Eddie F" Ferrell is the co-founder, partner, and DJ of the Uptown Records rap group Heavy D & the Boyz. Ferrell is a producer, arranger, songwriter, executive and entrepreneur serving as CEO and President of Untouchables Entertainment Group, the parent company of . Boyle, executive vice president of the Infrastructure Division of Intergraph Software Solutions. "With the addition of StormWorks, Intergraph has the most comprehensive civil product offering available. Our civil solutions range from surveying to transportation to water resources, offering our customers the ability to integrate their complete workflow." Modeling tools The layout tools in StormWorks are based on the digital terrain modeling (DTM DTM dermatophyte test medium. ) and alignment data structure of all Intergraph civil products -- including InRoads inroads Noun, pl make inroads into to start affecting or reducing: my gambling has made great inroads into my savings inroads npl to make inroads into [+ , our premier transportation design software. The 3D model is fully associative, so that movement or modifications to junctions such as manholes or inlets are dynamically reflected in adjoining structures. All network structures can be shown in plan and profile, and utilities such as water, gas and electric can be reflected in profiles as well. This visual clash detection will aid in reducing costly interferences that often are not discovered until a project is under construction. Network design and analysis StormWorks includes a robust set of tools for engineering design and analysis of networks. These networks can consist of any combination of pipes, culverts, channels, inlets, manholes and pumps. Computation methods include Bernoulli, Manning's and Colebrook-White. In addition, numerous tools are provided for streamlining the determination of contributing areas based upon DTM aspect. Other industry standard analysis models such as HEC-2 and WSPRO are also supported. Once the model is physically and mathematically modeled, StormWorks provides a complete set of reporting tools for searching, analyzing and displaying your results. Furthermore, handy query and modify tools allow "what-if" scenarios to fully evaluate engineering design and analysis. The reporting makes it easy to provide bills of material and quantities for new construction. Coordinate geometry InRoads Cogo Classic(TM), an interactive coordinate geometry subsystem command processor, is included with StormWorks. Cogo Classic is a standalone application that allows the computation of offsets and intersections while performing basic geometry without using graphical CAD. Drawing and report production DraftWorks(TM), Intergraph's drawing utilities package, is included with every civil engineering product for easy extraction of plan/profile and cross section sheets as well as customized annotation 1. (programming, compiler) annotation - Extra information associated with a particular point in a document or program. Annotations may be added either by a compiler or by the programmer. . DraftWorks allows you to establish drawing standards that increase office productivity and document consistency. Tight integration StormWorks, an MDL-based product, is tightly integrated with our other civil engineering applications (InRoads(TM), SiteWorks(TM), InXpress(TM) and more) sharing the same graphical user interface graphical user interface (GUI) Computer display format that allows the user to select commands, call up files, start programs, and do other routine tasks by using a mouse to point to pictorial symbols (icons) or lists of menu choices on the screen as opposed to having to , DTMs, geometry and preferences, where applicable. Designs can be referenced or used directly from product to product. StormWorks also integrates with MicroDrainage, as well as Intergraph's mapping/GIS applications, allowing multiple disciplines to share project data.
