Mike by DHI is a common used software for e.g urban flooding analysis, see

https://www.mikepoweredbydhi.com/. It would be great to be able to work with the format dfs0 (time series) and dfs2 (raster data) in FME Desktop. If possible to read data in FME it can be used for volume calculations of flooded areas, calculate flow to be used for design of stormwater solutions etc. Also makes it possible to perform spatial analysis (flooded area vs buildings etc).

reasonably new to FME, yes, this would be a great reader. There are number of hydrodynamic modeling software tools out there that would benefit from being red into FME.

 

 


The Mike format would definetely be useful as a Reader in FME. It would safe a lot of time by doing this this heavy calculations in FME, which now takes goes really slow in Mike Urban and requires a lot of computational power.

Exicited to see if this could be implemented in FME.


Can for instance use one of these python-tools and integrate as a reader/writer:

I can confirm that the python-tools linked below sucsessfully has been used to read/write dfs0/dfs2 files in Python


Could also help with the tedious process of exporting the ascii file for depth, velocity and wse's for various storm return events.
