Flood Modeller Pro is a computer program that simulates the flow of water through river channels and across floodplains using a range of one- and two-dimensional hydraulic solvers, developed by CH2M HILL. The software incorporates a user interface for building, running and viewing the results of models, including a GIS map interface. Flood Modeller Pro has a free counterpart (Flood Modeller Free), and is a part of the Flood Modeller Suite range of software products and web applications.

Contents

Flood Modeller Pro was unveiled 19 November 2014 at CH2M HILL's International Flood Management Conference in London. is due to be released in the second quarter of 2015.

1D solvers

Flood Modeller Pro includes steady-state and unsteady 1D solvers.

2D solvers

Flood Modeller Pro includes three different 2D solvers:

  • The ADI solver is based on the DIVAST numerical engine first developed in the 1980s, and is designed to simulate fluvial, overland, estuarine and coastal situations where flow does not rapidly change.
  • The TVD solver is designed to better represent rapid changes in the water surface profile, but results in longer run-times.
  • The FAST solver uses simplified hydraulics to perform rapid assessments of flooding.
  • Flood Modeller Suite
