GeoHECHMS Reviews & Product Details

GeoHECHMS is a great tool for hydrologic modeling. The upgraded UI and suite of tools is very helpful for ease of use and creation of models. The transition from standard HEC-HMS is very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECHMS is a great product, I currently have no issues with the product or recommendations for its improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like all CivilGeo products, GeoHECHMS is equipped with powerful visualization tools and settings that organize large amount of information and data. Overlaying high resolution images, topography and GIS information allow our team to delineate drainage basins, longest flow paths, assign landuse types and produce calculations all in one software. The ability to reference public data sets such as Web Soil Survey and NLCD landuse data reduce the amount of time spent outside of the software downloading and processing information. GeoHECHMS also offers powerful output and reporting options that have greatly streamlined our workflow and allow our team to spend more time refining our modeling.

Some of the output options for intermediate calculations are buried within windows and can be difficult to find (such as impervious area when using NLCD data). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECHMS has taken our typical Hydrological Drainage Studies and amplified the speed with which we can complete them. The User Interface makes it quick and easy to work with and is extremely intuitive towards new employees learning the program. We are able to implement it quickly and easily into the majority of our work. My favorite part of the program is the ease of delineating large scale watershed subbasins that can be refined to smaller acreage if you are looking for a more detailed study of larger scale watersheds.

There really is not much to dislike. If I would have one recommendation, it would be that they push updates quite often and it can be cumbersome when one employee working on a project is on a later version from the week before and has to update to work in the current version weekly.

The most helpful thing about GeoHECHMS is that it brings the entire hydrology workflow into one unified, easy to use platform. Instead of bouncing between GIS software, manual calculations, and separate modeling tools, everything from watershed delineation to routing and reporting is built into a single, intuitive interface.

Some tools in GeoHECHMS can feel a bit sensitive to geometry or projection issues, which sometimes leads to troubleshooting steps that interrupt the workflow. It would also be helpful if certain processes like junction creation or flowpath assignment were more automated to reduce manual adjustments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHEC-HMS is a user-friendly program that can save you a great deal of time. If you ever have any issues or questions, the customer service team is highly responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

None, program works great and is a time saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHEC-HMS makes it easier to analyze watersheds using spatial data through leveraging GIS capabilities on top of HEC-HMS. It allows automatic watershed delineation from elevation models, integrates land use and soil data, and provides map-based visualization for better accuracy and interpretation. This integration improves runoff and flood predictions, simplifies data management, and supports scenario analysis for projects like stormwater planning and flood risk assessment.

GeoHEC-HMS has some disadvantages, such as a steep learning curve because it requires both GIS and hydrologic modeling skills. It also depends on high-quality spatial data, which may not always be available, and setting up and calibrating models can be time-consuming. Additionally, it often needs powerful hardware and, if used with commercial GIS software, can involve extra licensing costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECHMS is easy to use with reference resources readily available with the click of the mouse. It creates an impressive well-written report, complete in every way. The output can easily be imported into GeoHECRAS for unsteady stream flow analysis. Customer support is only minutes away with well qualified support staff. What used to take hours to analyze a watershed, can be reduced to much shorter time with a very detailed report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of anything I dislike about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really enjoyed using the CivilGeo software. It provides advanced features that are well suited for H&H analysis, and the customer support has been outstanding whenever I’ve needed help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, no issues so far. They are consistently working to make the software better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My company continues to integrate GeoHECHMS into our Civil 3D design software regularly and with ease. It is great that they have made the program so compatible with other design software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After using the program for a couple years now, I still do not have any negative comments regarding the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECHMS's interface is user friendly and fairly intuitive as far as order of operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At the moment, I haven't used it enough to find any downsides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
