Launching DHI CityFlow Live: A unified platform for smart urban water management

Urban water systems are complex and constantly changing. Traditionally, managing these interconnected systems has meant relying on multiple tools and specialist expertise to track rainfall, sewer flows, water quality and system performance. But siloed approaches make it hard to see the full picture, leaving cities vulnerable to flooding, pollution events and infrastructure failures.

To address this, DHI has introduced DHI CityFlow Live, a decision intelligence platform that unifies the entire urban water system - from collection systems to treatment plants and receiving waters. By providing real-time, actionable insights, DHI CityFlow Live empowers planners, engineers and utility managers to optimise performance, reduce overflows and protect water quality.

From siloed data to integrated insights
DHI CityFlow Live consolidates several legacy solutions including TwinPlant, Future City Flow and REDiT into a single, streamlined platform. It also allows broader teams beyond traditional modellers to interact directly with model outputs, enabling faster, smarter operational decisions.

Flexible and scalable for your city
The platform is modular and fully customisable. Choose from three core modules – DHI CityFlow Live Treatment Plant, DHI CityFlow Live Wastewater Network and DHI CityFlow Live Receiving Water, each with additional sub-modules. 

The true power emerges when modules work together. For example, you can take a scenario from a wastewater network analysis, explore its impact on a treatment plant in the Treatment Plant module and see the resulting effects on a nearby river or coast in the Receiving Water module.

Want to implement real-time, weather-adaptive control strategies across the entire urban water cycle? With DHI CityFlow Live, you can create feedback loops that connect predicted receiving water conditions and treatment plant operations to optimise collection system controls, thus reducing overflows, stabilising WWTP inflows and improving stormwater management.

These are just a few of the ways DHI CityFlow Live turns complex data into clear, actionable insights. And it continues to evolve, with future development focusing on water distribution and stormwater quality management, so your city is covered in all five urban water domains.
