Troubleshooting is an annoying necessity of hydraulic modeling. Why couldn’t my model just work right the first time!? Well, we feel your pain, and we want to make the model troubleshooting process even easier for you. With our new Simulation Health Reporting feature inside InfoDrainage 2025.5, the identification of continuity and convergence errors within hydraulic models just got way easier.
The Simulation Health Reporting feature provides a detailed breakdown of simulation errors from the SWMM engine inside of InfoDrainage and links those errors back to components inside your model. Having these errors automatically traced back to their cause inside of the model can help you efficiently resolve issues in a snap.
Everything you can do with Simulation Health Reporting
With Simulation Health Reporting, you can get an error breakdown by model components. This provides you with a list of simulation issues, like continuity errors, and categorizes them by model element. This means your troubleshooting process doesn’t need to involve guessing and checking, but rather it can now be a targeted and systematic workflow.
Additionally, the new reporting feature allows for error context integrated with the report. Essentially, when you’re presented with an error in your model, it will be accompanied by contextual information such as the error type, the storm scenario where it occurs, and a direct link to take you to the exact problem location in the plan view of your InfoDrainage model.
We talked a lot in our recent webinar How Autodesk is Shaping the Future of Stormwater, Wastewater & Distribution about how we don’t necessarily want to reinvent the wheel, but we do want to make it more efficient, effective, and powerful. The new Simulation Health Reporting tool is one way we’re doing that.
