The GeoSTORM software facilitates the ability to reverse the flow direction of certain project elements, such as pipes, routing reaches, roadway segments, and roadway crossings on the Map View. The following list represents the types of commands that can be used to reverse the assigned flow direction of project elements:
- Reverse Pipes
- Reverse Routing Reaches
- Reverse Roadway Segments
- Reverse Roadway Crossings
In this article, we will use the Reverse Routing Reaches command to describe how to reverse the routing reach(s) in GeoSTORM software.
Follow the steps below to use the Reverse Routing Reaches command:
- From the Input ribbon menu, click the Routing Reaches dropdown menu and select the Reverse Routing Reaches command.
- The Reverse Routing Reaches dialog box will be displayed, as shown below.
- The Select Routing Reaches section lists all the available routing reach(s) of the current scenario and allows the user to select single or multiple routing reach(s) defined in the project. The user can select the desired routing reach(s) using the checkbox option.
The user can also use the checkbox contained within the column header to select/deselect all the routing reaches. - Alternatively, the user can click the [Pick] button to manually select the routing reach from the Map View and then press [Enter] or right-click and select Done from the context menu to complete the selection. The number of selected routing reach(s) will be displayed in the Total selected read-only field, as shown below.
- After selecting the routing reach(s), click on the [Reverse] button and the software will then reverse the flow direction of the selected routing reach(s) as shown below.
- Alternatively, the user can select the routing reach(s) directly from the Map View and reverse its flow direction using the Reverse Routing Reach (Swap Direction) command from the right-click context menu.
