CEDRA-AVsand
Enables the engineer to create the geometric model of a storm water, wastewater or combined system, impose associated loads applying custom peaking factors to average daily contributions in US or SI units. Open channel and closed conduit flows may be computed, system adequacy determined, flow hydrographs generated, and stage-storage curves developed. Over thirty built-in conduit shapes are available, as well as the ability to define custom shapes. Static, dynamic, and backwater analysis with one of the available modelers, CEDRA-AVsand™ or USEPA SWMM (Versions 4.31 and 4.4h). Some of the functionality includes: o Define the model's geometry interactively, or by importing model data in a variety of file formats, o Introduce loads with direct flow rates, inflow hydrographs, land parcels and/or building footprints, o Database query and editing of hydraulic computational results, inventory features, operational and historic data, o Interactively edit node and pipe attributes, inflow hydrographs, o Interactively edit inflow hydrographs individually or by applying an equation to alter the flows in mass, o Introduce siphons, diversions, parallel pipes and loops, o Graphic display of hydraulic charts and tables, flow hydrographs, conduit and energy grade line profiles, and annotation of pipes and nodes with physical and computational data.
CEDRA-AVwater
Enables the engineer to define the geometric configuration of a water distribution network, establish the materials inventory, introduce supply and demand loads, perform analyses and display pertinent results in graphic and/or tabular format in the US or SI units. Storage tanks, pressure regulating, sustaining and open/close valves, pumps, meters, etc. can be included in the model. CEDRA-AVwater™ interfaces with the EPANET™ (Versions 1 and 2) modelers.

CEDRA-DataEditor
Facilitates the editing of feature attribute data and is an ideal tool for those involved with facility maintenance and/or data capture applications, or for those who wish to enhance ArcGIS native table editing functionality. The user creates an ASCII based file, referred to as the Theme Attribute Data File, that contains desired attribute labels and default values or equations for each attribute within a theme to be edited. There is no limit to the number of attributes or themes that can be specified. Using the information in the Theme Attribute Data File the program builds a custom single or multi-column dialog box containing the values for the specified attributes. It is possible for a feature to have: o All of its attributes stored in the theme's attribute table, or o Some of its attributes stored in the theme's attribute table, and others stored in an unlimited number of associated tables. When the user selects a feature for editing, a customized dialog box is displayed with the specified attribute labels and default values. An attribute's default value may be a specific value, or may be computed as the feature's area, perimeter or from a host default options. Ranges of allowable numeric attribute values, as well as, attribute drop-down lists may be specified. A Map Tips tool is also available providing the user the option of displaying multi-line map tips with user-specified labels to better identify the displayed value.
CEDRA-DxfExport
Enables the user to create an AutoCAD Drawing Interchange File (DXF file) for all visible features in the current map. Unlike other DXF export utilities, which process only one theme (layer) at a time, the CEDRA-DxfExport™ software processes all visible themes (shapefiles, personal geodatabases, enterprise geodatabases and coverages) from either Data View or Layout View. In addition, the CEDRA DxfExport software will process annotation features and graphic text elements. As such, a DXF file created by CEDRA-DxfExport can include features and text. In processing the visible feature and annotation layers in the map, note the following: o If a theme has selected features then only the selected features will be processed, if there are no selected features then all features in the theme will be processed. If the option Export Features displayed in the Current Extent is selected then all visible features in the current view will be exported regardless of the feature's selection state, o If there are selected MARKER, PEN, FILL and/or TEXT graphic elements then these graphic elements will be processed (if the user desires) and placed in separate layers in the DXF file, o The name of the theme will serve as the name of a layer in the DXF file, o The user has the ability to select one or more attributes from a theme for inclusion in the DXF file, if desired. When exporting attributes, the selected attributes will appear as "blocks" in the DXF file. o The user has the ability to export classes in a layer's classification as individual layers. o The user has the ability to export a point layer's symbology maintaining the symbology. That is a fire hydrant will appear as a fire hydrant in the DXF file. o The user has the ability to define a color mapping file ensuring the desired color is maintained in the DXF file. o The user has the ability to create a DXF file that maintains the line thickness for one or many user-specified layers.
