GeoSTORM Demo - 2D & 3D Viewing and Editing

Shift seamlessly between 2D and 3D viewing perspectives to clearly identify modeling issues and make changes. Freely rotate, pan, zoom, and fly through the model to any perspective to review subbasins, pipe networks, detention ponds, routing reaches and more.

GeoSTORM Demo - Powerful Report Generation

Comprehensive, easy-to-read input data and output analysis reports can be automatically exported to Microsoft Word and Excel using provided drainage report templates. Reports can be customized to meet reviewing agency requirements.

Using the software’s cloud data services, major foundries such as Neenah, East Jordan, and others have their catch basins and corresponding hydraulic capture-bypass curves included in the stormwater element catalog. All state DOT along with major city and county mandated catch basins are included.

Quickly size and design underground storage chambers as well as detention and retention ponds for different design storms and engineering criteria. Develop outlet structures for different scenarios, considering both water quality and design storm requirements.

GeoSTORM Demo - Purpose-Built Stormwater Design Tools

Integrated stormwater design tools offer efficient ways to compute catch basin locations.

"GeoSTORM has helped streamline the process of analyzing drainage projects for me."

4/5

What do you like best about GeoSTORM?

GeoSTORM has features that allow you to automatically delineate watersheds and subbasins based on a given surface. It also has features like automated flowpath calculations and land use databases that are built in so the process of manually finding information isn't necessary. The customer service team is also always there to help with any questions about the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoSTORM?

Some of GeoSTORM's drafting tools aren't as seamless as softwares like autoCAD, but it gets the job done. It has many features for drainage analysis that autoCAD doesn't have, so the positives mainly outway the negatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"GeoStorm reduces error in Stormwater Calculations with pinpoint data and tools."

4.5/5

What do you like best about GeoSTORM?

The ability to have a one stop shop for all stormwater design and calculation needs allows for more in sync data. The upsides to using Geostorm are the auto drainage basin creation based on topography and then ability to gather CN, Tc Paths, and flow quantities. Custormer support has been top notch in there willingness to help and the speed of their responses. We now use Geostorm on numerous projects and various and is easy to use.

What do you dislike about GeoSTORM?

GeoStorm is a high level program, there is a bit of a learning curve to get over before you will unlock the full potential. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
