Fluidit Storm is purpose-built for turning complexity into actionable insights. It is powered by cutting-edge analytics, seamless integrations, and decades of hydromechanical expertise.
Convert Your Existing Model or Import Asset Data
Fluidit Storm includes ready-to-use tools for converting and importing models from the most common commercial software solutions, and it supports opening SWMM models directly in the software. With a powerful import tool, you can seamlessly import components from any GIS vector format (SHP, GEOPKG, GEOJSON, GML, KML, SQLITE) or any other data source (LandXML, DXF, Excel, CSV) as well as online data sources.
Develop What-If Scenarios for Optioneering
Fluidit Storm includes a built-in scenario manager that lets users explore and compare multiple setups effortlessly. Create ‘what-if’ scenarios, organize them in a structured hierarchy, and track changes visually with ease.
Moreover, users can gain deeper insights by aggregating results across multiple scenarios and obtaining detailed statistics for any component—such as minimum, maximum, average, and percentile values—so you can easily evaluate model performance under varying conditions in a single scenario.
Create Customizable Dashboards as Storyboards
Fluidit’s versatile dashboards let users combine maps, profile views, result windows, and graphs—all in one place. Easily visualize measured versus simulated results or compare scenario differences for clear, actionable insights.
Schematic dashboards are ideal for creating storyboards within your system, highlighting the most relevant elements, and presenting results to clients or audiences at different technical levels. A comprehensive report on flooded locations, network capacity, and CSOs can be easily generated and exported from the model in PDF format.
Verify, Calibrate, and Validate Models with Built-In Tools
Fluidit Storm comes with powerful in-built verification and validation tools to ensure your hydraulic models are accurate and reliable. These tools allow you to automatically calibrate and optimize parameters, assign leakage or groundwater infiltration, and align your model with real-world measurement data.
With intelligent algorithms and automated workflows, you can quickly detect inconsistencies, optimize performance, and achieve compliance with operational standards—all without relying on third-party software.
Use a Multi-User Version Control System
All Fluidit desktop software features a multi-user version control system that supports concurrent model editing by modelers. When working on large-scale models, collaboration is critical—teams can seamlessly edit the same network in parallel, and history versions make it easy to trace the changes.
Collaborate on the Web by Integrating Fluidit Vision
Integration of Fluidit Storm with Fluidit Vision ensures clear communication among all stakeholders. Managers and clients can access the model via a secure web link, review it in their browsers, and leave comments, thereby streamlining teamwork between technical and non-technical users. Modelers receive comments instantly within the desktop software, making it easy to incorporate suggestions and enhance the model.
Investigate 2D Flow Paths and Simulate 1D-2D Coupled Flooding
Fluidit Storm is equipped with an improved version of CAFLOOD from Caddie’s framework for running 2D simulations. The engine uses modern hardware with parallel processing capabilities, including a multi-core CPU and a GPU. Fluidit CAFLOOD has been coupled with SWMM (1D), delivering fully coupled 1D–2D modeling capabilities.
Modern and Flexible UI with Fast Result Display
Fluidit’s user-friendly, customizable interface lets users arrange multiple time-series and tabular result windows, providing an instant view of results for every selected component. Many of the software’s functionalities are available by clicking or right-clicking the map, making your workflow faster and more efficient, such as finding the shortest route or modifying elevations. Fluidit Storm can be installed and run on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Predict & Prevent CSO Events Before They Happen
Heavy storms can overwhelm combined sewer systems, sending untreated wastewater into waterbodies and streets through Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs). Overflows disrupt operations, damage assets and ecosystems, and threaten public health. As regulations become stricter and the climate changes, overflow prevention is a growing priority for utilities and municipalities.
