Google Maps to EPANET – Water Supply Pipe Network Designer Tool

 Designing a Water Supply Scheme often starts with the biggest challenge—creating an accurate pipe network that matches real roads, streets, and villages, and then converting that data into an EPANET-ready hydraulic model. Traditionally, this required surveys, AutoCAD drafting, and hours of manual data entry.

Now, you can do it all directly in your web browser—no software installation, no login, completely free.

Pipe Network Designer Tool

✨ What is the Pipe Network Designer Tool?

Pipe Network Designer Tool is a free browser-based application that lets you design complete water supply networks on an OpenStreetMap (Google Maps-like interface). Simply click on the map to create Junctions, Tanks (ESR/OHSR), Reservoirs, and Pipes, then export everything directly to EPANET.

🔥 Key Features

✅ Interactive Map-Based Network Design

• Create Junctions, Tanks, and Reservoirs with a single click.
• Connect nodes to create pipelines.
• Pipe lengths are calculated automatically.

✅ Automatic Elevation Retrieval

• Fetch ground elevation instantly using Open-Elevation.
• Or import your own survey elevation data from Excel/CSV.

✅ Smart Pipe Colour Coding

• Automatic colours based on pipe diameter.
• Different styles for Existing (Solid) and Proposed (Dashed) pipelines.

✅ One-Click EPANET Export

• Export the complete network to .INP format.
• Includes Junctions, Pipes, Tanks, Reservoirs, Coordinates, and all hydraulic data.

✅ Multiple Export Options

• Excel Workbook
• Google Earth (KML)
• PDF Reports
• High-Resolution Images

✅ Excel-Like Data Editor

• View and edit the entire network in spreadsheet format.
• Copy and paste data directly from Microsoft Excel.

✅ Save & Reload Projects

• Save your work anytime.
• Continue editing later without losing your network.
