Irricad

This is a followup to the my last update. When we export the data back out of Irricad unfortunately the attributes from the import are lost. Meaning when our GIS software receives the information exported the IrriCad program our other software that we imported the boundary and the EM data our ...

Hi Robert,

I'm afraid I don't quite understand your expectation. The SHP files from the previous post appear to detail two adjacent fields south of Bakersfield, which don't overlap.

In Google Earth they look like this:

in Irricad v13.28, like this:

As far as I can tell ...

Hi Robert,

Newer versions of Irricad can import and export KML (Google Earth) files, and can import imagery and elevations directly from Google Earth. Google Earth itself can convert SHP files to KML. Of course there have been many other additions and improvements since v13. Irricad can also now ...

KL13.zip Hi Robert,

Irricad doesn't really use any geographical projection at all. It is simply a planar X, Y system. If you specify a UTM zone, those X,Y coordinates can be equivalent to UTM coordinates for that zone. Whenever Irricad converts lats. and longs. to planar XY, it assumes the lats ...

Thank you!

I am adding an item to the database and it is asking for a Major and Minor Connection type. What are the appropriate abbreviations that are to be used?
and beyond that there is a selection for M or F and next to it there is a box with one letter in it. On the attached picture there is a T and a S ...

Hi Dan,

This somewhat helps. I think we are trying to use this program beyond its limits. I can bring in NAD 83 boundary lines of our fields, but when I try to bring in images in that same format it does not work. Now we can do that in UTM WGS84 the problem with that is it skews the layout by about ...

Hi Jo,

We were able to get a step further with the information you provided. We were able to bring in the boundary and image in UTM WGS84. The problem is we don't want to work in UTMWGS84. Is there a way to reproject this to NAD 83?

We were able to bring the boundary's in under NAD83, but we ...

Hi Jo,

I am running 13.28.

I also had Mike Noftle notify me to try bringing the file in as meters. All the files are set in meters so we are comparing apples to apples. NDVI and EM images are all set the same way so if we can figure out how to bring these in with the shp file boundaries and ...

Yes we have tried several different ways. I can bring in the shp boundaries and contours with no issues. The issue lies with the tiff file. It should be all the same coordinate information.

Attached is the error message I receive. I can not send you the tiff files over this forum, but I should be ...

I import shp. boundaries and contours and then import an image with the same locations the program does not place it in the same location.

We can convert the image to a shape file, but that is another step to do. I am trying to figure out why the program does not recognize the coordinates on the ...

I have a design nearly completed and I want to see the total dynamic head of the system is there a report for this?

I imported elevation data is there a spot where I can see the slope that the program calculated?

Thank you,

Robert

Thank you Jo for taking the time to explain this information to me. I understand now where to change pressures if one wants to run a specific pressure on a valve.

Yes I did increase the velocity to 8ft/sec, but it did not change. I still receive errors. I will send you the design with my database and maybe we can connect next week to discuss.

Thank you,

Robert

I think I did the management correctly to separate out the water supply. After I complete this I still have pipes that are exceeding the pressure limits if I run the Velocity Design. When I run LP Design the headloss is to high. I did not set pressures at the water supply that should not be an issue ...

I think my problem is on the fact that I have 2 water supplies running 2 different fields each block has 10 zones. I have tried a couple of different ways to tell the program which zones belong to the water supplies. The reason I suspect this is that I am receiving errors stating the pressures are ...

I am going through our designs and trying to utilize the products that we have in the field. I am limited to 8 to 10 inch yellowmine for our submain/mainline and 10 to 12 inch Emerald for Mainline also all of our manifold blocks use 4 inch layflat into T-Tape 7/8" 12" - 220. We use 3 and 4" nelson ...
