"By using InfoWorks ICM ... we were able to precisely measure all of our project goals and prove—without a doubt—that our watershed planning would deliver positive outcomes for the community."

— Sheila Thomas-Ambat, Public Services Director, City of Fayetteville

"One of the most critical components of the entire system is the software thats been provided and created by Autodesk, its allowed us to create a Digital Twin of the entire system."

— Peter Robinson, Head of Engineering, Scottish Canals, USA

"It gave us better results. Now our model is able to keep up with the increase in groundwater."

— Javier Garcia, Jacobs Engineering, USA

"InfoWorks ICM has shown that we were justified in using the best modeling tools to get the best result."

— Ruchi Sayal, Hydraulic Modeler, Atkins, UK

Questions? We have answers.

Both InfoWorks ICM and InfoWorks WS Pro include local simulation capabilities by default. Customers also have the option to run simulations in the cloud for greater scalability and performance.

Each subscription includes a set allocation of free cloud simulation hours. In certain cases—such as when running parallel or large-scale simulations—users may reach this allocation limit.

If you need additional capacity, you can purchase bundles of 500 cloud simulation hours directly through your Autodesk Account. This allows you to continue leveraging cloud simulations without interruption, scaling your analysis as project demands increase.

Autodesk InfoWorks ICM is an advanced integrated catchment modeling software. It allows small utilities and large enterprise organizations to model complex hydraulic and hydrologic network elements quickly, accurately, and collaboratively. Autodesk InfoWorks ICM helps you plan for capacity improvements, system expansions, and emergency scenarios for water and wastewater professionals.

Sewer and stormwater engineers, planners, project managers, and consultants use Autodesk InfoWorks ICM to face evolving challenges driven by regulations, level of service, customers, environment, and operations. By building accurate and holistic models, we’re able to predict how a system will respond to varying conditions. This allows you to better respond, plan, and fulfill the needs of your community. Plus, you can do it all using an industry-trusted, cross-team solution.
