ISIS Free

ISIS Free - River modelling softwareHalcrow have developed ISIS Free so that it offers an integrated 1D and 2D modelling software package. ISIS Free has all the same features as ISIS Professional, ISIS 2D and ISIS FAST which enable you to confidently apply it to smaller river modelling projects and to tackle different types of hydraulic conditions (i.e. flood risk assessments, flood mapping and design projects), and then seamlessly move to ISIS Professional, ISIS 2D or ISIS FAST should your project grow beyond the following restrictions: 250 1D nodes, 2,500 2D cells or DEM grid size of 2,500 cells.

ISIS Free can be downloaded at no cost and  used on both commercial and non-commercial projects.

Users can sign up to an annual support and maintenance contract to gain direct access to the ISIS technical support team.

Should your project grow to need integrated 1D–2D modelling using ISIS and TUFLOW, sediment transport or water quality modelling then users can upgrade to ISIS Professional with the appropriate add-on modules
