What is MIDUSS?
MIDUSS is Windows-based software that helps you to engineer
complex drainage networks to convey flow hydrographs from single
event storms. MIDUSS lets you:
- generate hydrographs using a variety of built-in
hydrologic models
- design a network of pipes, channels, culverts, ponds,
infiltration trenches, cascading pipes, diversions - all with
preliminary sizing done automatically and flood routing where appropriate
- use interactive design and immediate feedback to quickly
optimize each element as you progress downstream
- use automatic mode to analyze and adjust your completed
design under more severe storms
- concentrate on engineering; robust error detection and
step-by-step prompts are provided throughout
- import/export hyetographs or hydrographs at virtually any
stage
- feel good about your investment: we offer competitive
software pricing and on-going updates and support
- get going fast with detailed Reference and Tutorial
manuals as well as free audio-visual lessons
- feel assured we know what we're doing - MIDUSS is 20 years
on the market and still going strong
Is MIDUSS a hydrology model?
No! MIDUSS is a toolkit that brings together many accepted hydrologic
models and hydraulic design methodologies into one software
package.
MIDUSS is the yellow dot on the diagram below. Other products on the market are
concentrated at the top - focused on simulation and
hydrograph generation.
MIDUSS is a balance between hydrologic simulation and drainage design
engineering.
We include a lot of hydrologic
models (storm, runoff, infiltration) but
MIDUSS excels at helping you design the best drainage network
to convey your hydrograph.
