RIDGE Labs is dedicated to advancing BIM (Building Information Modeling) developments and engineering software solutions. This division develops automated tools for stormwater and flood protection projects, integrating cutting-edge technologies such as machine learning and optimization algorithms. RIDGE Labs works on hydraulic modeling software and BIM applications that enhance the efficiency of storm drainage systems. Their innovations include automated detection of drainage channels, dynamic risk mapping, and seamless integration of hydrologic and hydraulic models. Additionally, they have created BIM applications that facilitate the automatic generation of culverts and drainage systems, ensuring precision and efficiency in infrastructure development.

Previous work includes:

• Automatic detection of Channels in DEMs.
• Various hydraulic calculators with fully functional GUI (PYTHON).
• Automatic parsing of Risk rasters produced directly from HEC-RAS.
• Bill of quantities for storm networks with fully functional GUI (PYTHON).
• Integration of SWMM models with LISFLOOD FP (1D/2D coupling) (PYTHON).
• Automatic optimization for LISFLOOD FP integrated with automatic calibration (PYTHON).
• BIM Applications: Automatic creation of culverts synced with Roads corridors on Civil 3D.
• Optimization of open channel paths between two points based on various objective functions.
• HBV Hydrologic model, uncertainty analysis and calibration in a fully functional GUI (MATLAB).
• Saint vennant dynamic 1D engine using priesmann scheme with fully functional GUI (MATLAB).
• Automatic optimization for HECRAS (2D and 1D) integrated with automatic calibration (PYTHON).
