ISIS DATA

ISIS Flow is a full hydrodynamic simulator for modeling flows and levels in open channels and estuaries and is at the heart of the system. ISIS Flow is able to model complex looped and branched networks, and is designed to provide a comprehensive range of methods for simulating flood plain flows. ISIS Flow incorporates both unsteady and steady flow solvers, with options that include simple backwaters, flow routing and full unsteady simulation. The simulation engine provides a direct steady-state solver and adaptive time-stepping methods to optimise run-time and enhance model stability.

ISIS provides full interactive views of the model data and results using plan views, long sections, form based editing tools and time series plots. Results can also be reported in text and tabular formats. The software includes a wide range of diagnostic error checks.

MLS together with MBS Software Ltd have incorporated into the RXS software package a direct export into the ISIS suite. Exporting in either 2D or 3D format makes the transition from field to hydraulic model very efficient.
