From modeling water systems to analyzing drainage networks, the Innovyze company already had over 35 years of innovation experience when its products were added to the Autodesk group.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Autodesk Water Infrastructure is water (aka. wet) infrastructure software. It provides modeling, simulation, asset performance management, and operational analytics for the water sector. Autodesk Water Infrastructure tools enable more cost-effective water distribution and collection infrastructure. They also equip water agencies to optimize their capital and operational expenses through the use of sustainable design for drainage systems, plus centralized <a href=\"https:\/\/graitec.com\/us\/doing-and-becoming-something-new-why-innovation-matters\/\">visibility<\/a> into infrastructure assets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\">\r\n<figure class=\"alignnone nspb-cmsFigure nspb-loadingOverlay nspb-lazyLoading\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1010606\" src=\"https:\/\/graitec.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2023\/02\/.deweese-reservoir-co-image-carol-s-dunn-1500x1125.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"523\" height=\"392\" \/><figcaption>DeWeese Reservoir, Colorado; image: Carol S.
