The WMS software development team is excited about the release of WMS 10.1! This page lists the exciting new features that have been added to WMS 11.0.
What's new in WMS 11.0
Map Flood Tool
A new Map Flood tool was added to automatically offset 100-year floodplain maps to analyze extreme flood scenarios. This option can be used to define a vertical offset from a baseline 100-year FEMA floodplain map. This vertical offset is used with readily available web service data to automatically delineate a new floodplain and determine a new, wider floodplain boundary that accounts for this offset. These modified floodplain maps can be used to determine the impacts of extreme weather and flood scenarios on existing and proposed roadways and other structures.
Floodplain Delineation Improvements
The floodplain delineation capabilities in WMS 11.0 have been streamlined and improved. In many cases, the floodplain delineation has been sped up by a factor of 10.
Worldwide Elevation Data
Support for automatic downloads of worldwide elevation data provided by Amazon has been added.
HEC-RAS Cross Section Database Improvements
Better support for managing and editing cross section databases for HEC-RAS modeling has been added. A new dialog that allows WMS users to select, manage, and edit cross sections and cross section databases has been implemented.
Support for Reading, Viewing, and Converting LIDAR Data
Improved support for reading, viewing, and converting LIDAR data to other formats to use with your model has been added.
HEC-RAS and HEC-HMS Updates
Support has been added for the most recent version of HEC-RAS (5.0.3) and the most recent version of HEC-HMS (4.2.1).
The option to import HEC-RAS GIS (.sdf) files has been sped up and improved.
LandXML Import/Export
Support for reading and writing LandXML files from the hydraulic modeling module for the SWMM, HY12, and EPANET models has been added.
