DU conduits external wall controled by Feature Symbology
We have the option to define a template to pipes external walls, but only through the feature definition. For all other elements of the pipe, OR allows for feature symbology. From my experience, symbologys work better and are more constant.
Add the ability to calculate spread on two sides of a median barrier inlet
There are tens of thousands of barrier inlets on barrier medians throughout the US. Spread needs to be calculated on both sides, with the overall flow being added to the storm sewer system. Currently, the only way to do this is to create to halves...
Make it easier to manage longitudinal spread slope. It's nice to input the slope in the properties per node, but consider making it integrated to the gutters used during bypass flow drawing of gutters.
For large projects, we need the ability to have multiple engineers working on the hydraulic model. We can achieve this by splitting the pipe network into multiple files and creating catchments in separate files. Doing so causes us to lose the abil...
If ditches do become channel features, KYTC would need channels to then be able to attach to other node types besides headwalls since we have many conditions and locations where they outlet into inlets of various types.
Simplfy the Interface - How many "sizes" can there be?
Object Properties - Feature Definition of a pipe is top level, its description is a pick list of diameters (TxDOT), but Utilities Properties has three different locations. This complexity is unnecessary.
When starting a DU, OpenRoads creates a whole DU project inside the file and brings a lot of hidroly/hidraulic properties with it. That's fine if the goal is to run an analysis. But what if I just want to model a whole network and never run it? Di...
