General information

PCSWMM is the spatial decision support system for water management modeling. It offers high value at an economically sensible price.

The perfect platform for exploring your best ideas, PCSWMM will help improve your new drainage and green infrastructure design, floodplain delineation, sewer overflow mitigation, water quality and integrated catchment analysis, 1D-2D modeling – and much, much more. Easy to learn, PCSWMM expands with you as your confidence grows.

Dramatically streamline your workflow and save a ton of time with smart and easy-to-use tools designed by engineers who use the software every day. With a high performance, stand-alone GIS engine at its core, you can efficiently analyze systems, synthesize, develop and prove models and make informed decisions.

Benefit from flexible, open software, as PCSWMM is built to accommodate your existing software ecosystem – and with its open standard data formats, sharing your work with clients and colleagues is effortless. PCSWMM's open source engine is far from a black box, so you can confidently work with transparent and trusted code.

Say goodbye to limits. With no restrictions on model size and complexity, PCSWMM is optimized to handle millions of time series data points and hundreds of thousands of entities. No matter how large or small your model, you'll make effective use of all your data at a fraction of the cost of comparable software.

User-friendly and highly supported, PCSWMM's design is incredibly intuitive and easy to use, allowing you to quickly focus on the engineering. And with unparalleled free educational resources, such as JWMM and OpenSWMM, comprehensive integrated training, and unlimited technical support from qualified professional engineers, you'll be a star.
