What's New in Version 2026.0

Backwards compatibility

InfoDrainage 2026.0 introduces backwards compatibility for increased collaboration and accessibility. This significant enhancement allows users to save their InfoDrainage models as previous versions using the "Save As" feature which not only promotes greater interoperability among InfoDrainage users but also extends compatibility with Civil 3D users. By enabling the saving of models in earlier formats, we are committed to facilitating seamless collaboration and workflow integration across different versions and platforms.

Users will be able to "Save As" their InfoDrainage models to the first release of each year, once this is released users will be able to save their model to:

Rainfall Improvements

InfoDrainage 2026.0 introduces significant enhancements to rainfall methods, providing users with greater flexibility and precision in defining design hyetographs.

The newly introduced "trimmed" shaped Desbordes rainfall hyetograph will allow for more tailored rainfall event modeling, ensuring better and more accurate simulations.

Additionally, we have improved the performance of the Australian Rainfall and Runoff hyetographs, ensuring more reliable and efficient computations. As part of these improvements, InfoDrainage 2026.0 now includes automatically retrievable temporal pattern increments data, saving users time and effort in setting up their models.
