GeoSTORM vs. Carlson Civil

GeoSTORM is a Civil 3D-integrated stormwater modeling software that streamlines catchment area delineation, runoff calculations, and flow routing. It supports multiple hydrology methods, such as EPA SWMM, SCS TR-55/TR-20, Rational, Modified Rational, and DeKalb Rational, enabling flexible hydrologic analysis. Capabilities include interactive detention/retention pond design and roadway catch basin optimization using major U.S. and Canadian foundry catalogs, which helps engineers move from concept to deliverable efficiently.

Carlson Civil provides the most robust automation and ease-of-use of any civil design solution available today, and it does dynamic updating without a single custom object. What might take days with other civil software takes just hours, or even minutes, with the powerful, intuitive Carlson Civil: • Road NETwork. Build all roads, intersections and cul-de-sacs in 2D and 3D with a single click of the “PROCESS” button. • Site NETwork. Elevate your estimating accuracy with this intuitive layer-based surface generator for easy cut/fill and material quantities calculations. • Lot NETwork.
