ICMLive

ICMLive functionality lets you convert InfoWorks network models in on-premise databases into near real-time, forecasting systems. Additional tools that let you configure the live forecasting system, such as manifests which represent region of interest, can be built and calibrated in InfoWorks ICM Ultimate or ICMLive Configuration Manager for use in the ICMLive Operator Client.

The ICMLive Operator Client allows operators to use real-time data to produce forecasts of the hydraulic response of integrated catchments. Alerts can be generated if the forecast predicts behaviour deemed to be of interest to the operator. In addition to alerting operators to unfavourable conditions, these forecasts allow the operator to assess the response of the system to various strategies. This allows operational decisions to be made in a timely manner. See the ICMLive Operator Client help for more information.

Typical applications include:

• Support of planned operational activities
• Emergency response support
• Advance forecasts of CSO discharges
• Advance warning of potential flooding incidents

An ICMLive system provides the ability to:

• Consolidate and verify real-time hydrometric, SCADA and radar data from various sources
• Feed this data into hydrological and hydraulic models
• Automatically initialise model simulations
• Analyse and report on both the observed data and the model results
• Generate alerts based upon the data and/or model results
• Issue alerts via email with embedded graphs
• Export model results or alerts to databases
