Seeing changes in the physical features of the earth historically has taken eons – sometimes literally, as in identifying the shifting of Earth’s tectonic plates and the drift that created the continents as we know them.

Water system design and analysis can be costly, time consuming, and challenging for municipal agencies. The combination of CAD, GIS, simulation and analysis features needed to produce a useful model usually means bouncing between different technologies and platforms. Often, it's a marginal CAD-enabled platform that requires export to a GIS platform, or a limited bolt-on tool that is tied to a GIS platform, neither supporting the iterative need...
