## About GeoHECRAS
GeoHECRAS is an advanced hydraulic modeling software that simplifies HEC-RAS modeling as it accelerates river and floodplain analysis by reducing repetitive GIS and CAD processing. Tasks like merging DEMs, generating elevation profiles, or building HEC-RAS floodplain surfaces are completed in half the time. The software integrates LiDAR surveying data, NLCD Land Cover data, and FEMA Flood maps directly into AutoCAD, MicroStation, or ArcGIS workflows. GeoHECRAS is used for river modeling, 1D and 2D hydraulic modeling, dam breach analysis, and HEC-RAS bridge modeling, along with complex floodplain encroachment studies—all with built-in reporting and reduced external GIS dependency.

**Validated Reviewer:** Validated through a business email account added to their profile

**Source: Organic:** Organic review. This review was written entirely without invitation or incentive from G2, a seller, or an affiliate.

**Reviewed Date:** April 11, 2025

**What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?**

GeoHECRAS has a few key features that make a stream modeling workflow more efficient. To start, they have round-the-clock support for designers using the software. This is guaranteed in the deal. Tasks like georeferencing, adding cross sections, and adjusting geometry becomes easier with the click of a button.

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

The only problem I've had with GeoHECRAS is the processing power it takes to load a model. Some of our projects are so large that the takes almost 10 minutes to display and allow the designer to work in the file. This is not a huge issue, but it is notable when I want to simply make a quick change.

**What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GeoHECRAS solves the issue of improting geometry to a river model. As many civil water resources engineers understand, the only other option for river modeling is the standard HEC-RAS software developed by the Army Corps of Engineers. HEC-RAS standard doesn't have support, and the user interface is confusing and takes a long time to learn. Now, with GeoHECRAS, we can have a new designer learn river modeling in a more comprehensive and understandable way.

**Official Response from Sara Presta:**

> Hello,

Thanks a lot for sharing your review. Reading comments like yours gives a boost to our confidence; and, of course, we are very pleased to know that GeoHECRAS helps you achieve your engineering goals.

Best of all though is the customer service. I called for help on one of my projects and literally just set up a teams meeting right then and there to share my scree. It was wonderful being able to work with the engineers who actually created the programming to help solve my issues. I have called several times for one especially complicated project that I working through and they have been great every time.

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

Although the user interface has improved a lot it still takes quite a bit of training and know-how in order to use the product.

**Validated Reviewer:** Validated through LinkedIn

**Source: Organic:** Organic review. This review was written entirely without invitation or incentive from G2, a seller, or an affiliate.

**Reviewed Date:** October 04, 2024

**What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?**

I use GeoHECRAS for 2D hydraulic modeling. It is very user friendly while mantaining a wide array of uses with a robust engine.  I am able to produce very high resolution results usually in a relatively short amount of time. GeoHECRAS is easy to integrate into existing methodologies and easy to pair with other software systems. Additionally, their customer support is always very helpful and friendly, and has helped me with modeling setup, errors, and understanding of how the program works.

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

The only downside I've experienced for GeoHECRAS is that there is currently no easy way to integrate subsurface stormwater impacts. However, I do believe they are working on a data wrapper for EPA SWMM that has a similar user interface to GeoHECRAS.

**What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?**

Many of the models I have worked on have been for bridge and culvert replacement, the preloaded load culvert parts make it extremely efficient to create multiple scenerios and anaylze the results from different hydraulic opening quickly and accurately. Additionally being to load CAD files in the model is helpful to check dimensions, assign cross sections from polylines and add quickly update surfaces when survey data is available.

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

Just like with any software there are bugs and glitches that sometimes occur when using built in features. However, the support team of CivilGEO is extremely responsive in answering questions and pathcing bugs and glitches when they are noticed by users. I hope that updating the software after the CivilGEO team addresses the bugs will be more streamlined.

**What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GeoHECRAS is helping model the existing and proposed conditions of bridges and culverts that are being replaced. The information GeoHECRAS that allows us to review and design hydraulic openings to meet regulatory requirements. The software allows us to model both complex projects with various hydraulic features and simple projects with ease and efficiency.

**What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?**

GeoHECRAS has allowed me to use existing Civil 3D drawings in our hydraulic analysis. This allows us to manipulate the terrain and take a 3D view of what the analysis looks like without wasting time.

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

In most projects, our drawings vary in size from small to very large. It is necessary to clean up the drawings before importing into GeoHECRAS so that the program itself doesn't become bogged down.

**What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This program allows me to calculate and effectively report on hydraulic studies so that I can coherently convey the site design and know what effects the proposed outcome will have.

**Validated Reviewer:** Validated through a business email account

**Source: Organic:** Organic review. This review was written entirely without invitation or incentive from G2, a seller, or an affiliate.

**Reviewed Date:** September 13, 2024

**What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?**

The user interface and additional tools provided in GeoHECRAS are what make this software helpful.

**Validated Reviewer:** Validated through a business email account

**Source: Organic:** Organic review. This review was written entirely without invitation or incentive from G2, a seller, or an affiliate.

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2024

**What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?**

GeoHECRAS is most helpful in importing and exporting elevation data, shapefiles, AutoCAD files and more. This makes it extremely helpful when creating a model that requires information from other documents and items. My favourite feature is importing elevation data and using the generate terrain function to create a digital elevation model that can be exported to other programs with ease.

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

What is least helpful about GeoHECRAS is that there is not much information online for help and support. The GeoHECRAS website is useful but specific and limited and not many other sites have a lot of information on how to troubleshoot when running into problems.

**What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GeoHECRAS help me create floodplain maps and Digital Elevation models that are needed information when designing sites for our clients

**Validated Reviewer:** Validated through a business email account

**Source: Organic:** Organic review. This review was written entirely without invitation or incentive from G2, a seller, or an affiliate.

**Reviewed Date:** December 15, 2023

**What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?**

One of the things I like about GeoHECRAS is the customer service and the effort put into tutorials online. When stuck using other software applications, you have to search on YouTube and suffer for multiple hours before something miraculously works. With GeoHECRAS, they have an online user manual which I've used multiple times and made my workflow easy. They also have beginner tutorials that get you going from the start. This is my first time learning the software, but in a matter of weeks, I understand it more than other applications I have used for years.

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

It would be nice to change cross section elevations through multiple cross-sections at the click of a button. It is probably possible, but I don't know how to do it yet.

**What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have been using the software to provide flow velocity profiles when given the peak flows and bathymetry data from our clients.
