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. * * * Product Website GeoHECRAS Seller [CivilGEO, Inc.](https://www.g2.com/sellers/civilgeo-inc) Discussions [GeoHECRAS Community](https://www.g2.com/products/geohecras/discuss) Languages Supported English Solution Type Best-of-Breed Overview by Chris Maeder (Engineering Director at CivilGEO Engineering Software) Show More ## Value at a Glance Averages based on real user reviews. ### Perceived Cost $$$$$ [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/geohecras/pricing) ## GeoHECRAS Integrations (7) What do users say about integrations?

Design Engineer Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 7/17/2025 "Great product for civil engineers" 4.5/5 What do you like best about GeoHECRAS? My favorite thing about GeoHECRAS is the ability to visualize large sets of data over a large area. The program is user friendly and can be easily learned using the helpful videos they have on their website. Their customer service team is also great whether its about purchasing the software or when handling specific engineering questions. They're always eager to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS? The only downsides of using GeoHecRAS is that sometimes, with larger sets of data, it can take quite a while to run the models. Also I wish that there was a way to plot all profiles in one click, rather than having to do each one individually. Overall, great product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you? GeoHECRAS has allowed us to streamline our modeling of large flood areas, and has increased efficiency. We are able to generate mulitple results and reports from a single model, rather than having to run separate programs and models. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Bridge Design Engineer Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 5/29/2024 "Comprehensive hydralics tool makes hydraulic analysis simple." 5/5 What do you like best about GeoHECRAS? Every time I use GeoHECRAS I learn something or find another tool that saves me time in my hydraulic analyses. I've found that not only does this software reduce our time analyzing hydraulics, but it also makes it easier to teach young engineers how to model hydraulics because it's more, dare I say, fun. The visuals and easy-to-navigate command ribbons make it easy to find what we need to model. GeoHECRAS includes many features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS? I would like to see GeoHECRAS be able to output all cross-section geometry data (STA & elevations namely) concisely. I think that this would save some time during certain modeling scenarios that come up more frequently than I used to assume. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Civil Engineer Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 7/7/2025 "GeoHECRAS makes it easier to analysis floodplains and hydraulic structures." 4.5/5 What do you like best about GeoHECRAS? In GeoHECRAS, there are many features that make it easy to obtain the information required for most standards. When you have a question or trying to understand the features that are implemented, the program have a question mark that will direct you to their Knowledge website that will give you a brief description on what the function is used for. If you still have questions about the program or any issues, the engineering team is always responsive in reasonable amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS? Saving is sometimes an issue, especially when working on larger projects. It is inconvenient that we need to save everything on local drive then archive or save as onto your shared drive. Every other feature has been amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you? If the proposed terrain changes, it is very simple to change the terrain profile and extract to just certain geometry. This benefits us for we do not have to create a brand new model or file because of a few changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Civil Engineer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/8/2025 "Great software, even better customer service and support." 4/5 What do you like best about GeoHECRAS? I like how much GeoHECRAS simplifies the modeling process for my LOMR's. It also brings a variety of tools together in one (StreamStats, NLCD, Elevation data, etc.) which helps things come together quicker and easier. I also really appreciate their customer service. They have also been very responsive when I had a question and hosted several video meetings/trainings to get me more comfortable with the software. I also like the layout of the tools. I think it's pretty intuitive if you're used to Civil 3D or GIS programs. Much more friendly than the base HECRAS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS? At one point I was having an issue with my license for the software, but GeoHECRAS support was able to fix it quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
