Solution for Flood Simulation

jauhari_mani — Thu, 09 Jan 2025 13:34:47 GMT

Hi Community,

I’m looking to build a web-based platform where users can input data to run flood simulations. The platform should allow users to adjust parameters such as rain frequency and duration, as well as add barriers to observe flood patterns.

Additionally, I would like to incorporate analysis features similar to those in ArcGIS Pro, but since ArcGIS Pro is a desktop tool and can be complex for general users, I’m wondering if there are any services or SDKs that could help me achieve this functionality on the web.

Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
Mani

Hi Mani,

Unfortunately we don't have any plans for supporting the use of the interactive / dynamic flood simulation capabilities in ArcGIS Pro through a web front-end UX at the moment. The tool requires a 3D view (in Pro) as a starting point for providing the analysis surface, and then the math is run in the GPU for the application. Currently the web part of the dynamic flood sim story is purely for the consumption of the output data (TIF or CRF) in web maps and web scenes, rather than the ability to configure and run a scenario in a GP-service based way.

Thanks,

-Nathan.
