Better Together: Drainage Design Best Practices with InfoDrainage and Civil 3D

With the release of drainage tools for Civil 3D 2026, users are asking: How do these tools fit into Autodesk's drainage design ecosystem? This session provides a clear, practical comparison of drainage tools for Civil 3D and InfoDrainage, including how each solution integrates into your workflows. We will demonstrate how to combine Autodesk tools with open-source solutions and LLM's to unlock new possibilities. We streamline the drainage design process by using API and Civil 3D tools for catchment delineation. Walk away with a practical understanding of the tools, with the ability to navigate Autodesk's evolving drainage design landscape and leverage a hybrid ecosystem for scalable, intelligent design.
