Case Study: KPA Engineers optimizes watershed modeling and flood mapping with CivilGEO GeoHECRAS

KPA Engineers optimizes watershed modeling across 73 square miles with CivilGEO

KPA Engineers faced the challenge of performing extensive drainage assessment studies across a 73-square-mile area in Texas, which required building complex hydrologic and hydraulic models and updating flood insurance maps. This process was historically time-consuming, involving iterative work across multiple CAD, GIS, and the core HEC-RAS software. To overcome this, they utilized GeoHECRAS software from CivilGEO.

The solution from CivilGEO streamlined the entire modeling workflow. GeoHECRAS allowed for easy data import and integration of structural elements, enabling efficient model construction, analysis, and post-processing. This created significant efficiencies, standardized work for a team of 3-5 modelers, and facilitated the assembly of final outputs for stakeholders. CivilGEO's software proved indispensable, exceeding KPA's expectations for productivity and final project visualization.
