InfoWater PZM is a state-of-the-art geocentric solution for analyzing, simplifying, and summarizing pertinent hydraulic information for each pressure zone in a water distribution system model. An indispensable water master planning tool, InfoWater PZM accelerates hydraulic diagram designs of existing and proposed pressure zones and helps ensure accuracy on projects that feature frequent updates and revisions.

Built atop ArcGIS, InfoWater PZM seamlessly integrates advanced dynamic water network modeling with sophisticated graph-theoretical algorithms to help you develop rigorous water distribution system models, accurately delineate pressure zone boundaries, and quickly generate comprehensive pressure zone hydraulic schematics including summaries of in/out flows through pumps, control valves, check valves, storage tanks, and reservoirs.

The program automatically identifies and delineates each pressure zone based on its “ending” elements such as tanks, pumps, control valves, check valves, closed pipes, and reservoirs. This helps to ensure that the network model accurately reflects actual system performance and operation. A hydraulic schematic is then produced for each pressure zone with the maximum and minimum elevation defined by tank level, junction, pump, control valve, closed pipe, and check valve elevation information. Summary data includes the flow and pressure for each hydraulic element, along with a summary of maximum and minimum data for pressure, hydraulic grade line, water quality, flow, velocity, head loss, and hydraulic slope. This information can be generated for any modeling scenario and hydraulic time step of an extended period (dynamic) simulation.
