Using XPSWMM to create Flood Maps
Using XPSWMM to create Flood Maps
(OP)
Has anyone ever used XPSWMM to create flood maps? I have an urban area (mostly closed conduits) and have been asked to create flood maps. I have created a DTM in SWMM but have been unsuccessful in displaying the flooding extents. Any ideas?

I've used XP-SWMM to do flood plain modeling before, but I've never used the DTM portion of the program. I cut sections in Land Development Desktop, entered approximations of them in the section geometry editor of XP-SWMM, did my analysis, and then drew the extents of the flood back in AutoCAD by hand. Took me about a day.
I finally yoinked an educational copy of Civil3D, so I plan on goofing off with it sooner or later. So far all I've discovered is they changed the LayIso command to be a big pain in my ass.
