## 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.




## GeoHECRAS Reviews
  ### 1. Good at terrain mods, but a little clunky

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jonathan W. | Project Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 06, 2025

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

I like the ease of drawing, working with multiple files types (GIS, CAD, RAS), and the terrain modification tools (XML, raster).

**What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?**

Lately it has been very buggy, crashing frequently. Also, it's inconvenient that all of the RAS windows have to close every time you run a model.

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

The interface between CAD, GIS, and getting the initial geometry data into the RAS model is most useful.

**Official Response from Sara Presta:**
