• Asset management Deterioration Modeling made smarter with Info360 Asset

    Aging water and wastewater infrastructure presents a growing challenge for utilities: unexpected failures, costly emergency repairs, and uncertainty in long-term capital planning. Predicting which pipes are most at risk has often relied on incomplete inspection data or manual scoring, leaving asset managers with limited insight. The new Deterioration Modeling feature in Info360 Asset tackles this…


  • Our essential guide to the CIRIA 753 SuDS manual for water management

    If you’re a drainage designer in the UK, you probably already know about the CIRIA SuDS manual: To help our customers interpret these guidelines, we’ve created “A Guide to Representing SuDS in InfoDrainage”, which explains all of the settings and options in the software that can help you meet the recommendations of the CIRIA manual.…


  • The role of wet ponds and infiltration basins in sustainable drainage design

    Ponds and infiltration basins are two of the most effective strategies in sustainable drainage design, offering multiple benefits beyond simple stormwater control. By capturing runoff from impervious surfaces and either storing it for gradual release or allowing it to soak back into the ground, these systems reduce flood risks, improve water quality, and recharge groundwater…

    What are soakaways and how should they be designed?

    Evolving weather patterns and increasing rainfall lead to water and drainage challenges for homes, businesses, and infrastructure. Developers must incorporate drainage systems in their planning that can solve current water challenges and meet tomorrow’s unknown water management needs. Soakaways can create safer, more resilient communities while protecting the environment. What are soakaways? Soakaways reduce the…


  • illustration of sustainable drainage project. The image shows a bioswale, which is a landscaped feature designed to manage stormwater runoff and promote groundwater recharge. The bioswale includes a variety of plants and grasses that help filter pollutants from the water. The area is green and lush, with various types of vegetation interspersed throughout. The ground has a gentle slope directing water flow toward the plants, which aids in natural water purification and absorption. The setting appears to be part of an urban or suburban environment, with some paved surfaces visible nearby.

    Smart City SuDS: How I built a practical toolbox for evaluating bioswales

    We are pleased to spotlight guest author Mariya Bodylevskaya, who discovered InfoDrainage in the course of her studies around sustainable drainage at HFT Stuttgart. She shares her experience building a framework for better understanding and evaluating the performance of bioswales in urban environments. For several years, I have studied the topic of Sustainable Drainage Systems…
