WS pro a demand area analysis provides data that allows users to
00:09
review the current demand for water and project future potential demand areas.
00:15
After generating demand areas from area codes with the demand area grid open,
00:19
you can view the linked live data for a specific demand area
00:24
from the grid right click demand area 35 and select properties.
00:29
The demand area 35 dialog box appears which
00:32
contains the properties for this specific demand area
00:36
open. The live data usage tab
00:40
the live data usage grid shows the live data id,
00:43
the network object, the live data is linked to
00:46
the type of live data
00:48
and how the live data is used in the demand calculation.
00:52
The grid is only populated when the relevant live data
00:55
configuration file is open along with the network and control.
00:60
The live data usage may be automatically set to one
01:02
of several options which you can see within the usage column
01:07
inflow specifies flow through the link into the demand area only.

inflow specifies flow through the link into the demand area only.

01:43
TP specifies pressure live data assigned to a target point
01:48
unused specifies live data not used in demand area analysis.
01:53
Flow specifies that the flow through the link is bidirectional.
01:57
Again,
01:58
the calculation assumes that the connectivity of the bounding
02:01
links is in the positive direction of flow.
02:04
Reviewing the live data usage according to demand area allows you
02:07
to adjust operations accordingly and detect any long term issues.

In InfoWorks WS Pro, a demand area analysis provides data that allows users to review the current demand for water and project future potential demand areas.
To view the linked live data for a specific demand area:
The Live Data Usage grid shows:
Note: The grid is only populated when the relevant live data configuration file is open, along with the network and control.
Live data Usage may be automatically set to one of several options:
