What is AquaStream360?

AquaStream360 is an integrated software platform built to help utilities modernize and enhance the management of water distribution systems. It brings together several capabilities that simplify infrastructure digitization and contextualize the planning, design, operation, maintenance, and performance of water distribution systems to support and guide effective decision-making. The software offers built-in geospatial analysis, topographical analysis, data science, environmental, and hydraulic modeling capabilities, specifically designed for both interactive and automated workflows. Using these capabilities, AquaStream360 provides highly automated features and a flexible array of functions that empower users to model, analyze, calibrate, and optimize water distribution networks efficiently, while contextualizing their impacts through relatable, visually interpretable outputs.

What AquaStream360 Covers

AquaStream360 is built on a modular architecture, offering an extensive range of supporting capabilities beyond basic modelling. Despite this depth and breadth, the software features an internal guide system to lead users to explore features based on need or current state. Below is an overview of the analytical and operational capabilities, from model construction through to simulation, reporting, and a few supporting tools.

Flexible Model Creation

Construct and modify water network models manually, via schematic images, or directly within a GIS environment. Supports multiple input workflows to match your data availability.

Automated Network Construction

Generates hydraulic models from raw structured survey data with robust data cleaning modules that validate integrity and connectivity before constructing the network.

Integrated Editing

Supports interactive, bulk, or automated editing and importation of attributes from any supported file. Seamlessly update network topology while maintaining digital twin synchronization.

Calibration & Validation

Automatically evaluate deviations between model predictions and field data, identify configurations matching actual network performance, and iteratively refine models for improved accuracy.

Transient Simulation Engine

Custom engine capable of modeling water hammer, pump trips, valve operations, and surge propagation — including pressure envelopes and potential cavitation detection.

Pipe Integrity Engine

Models the influence of soil chemistry, pipe aging, and operating conditions on network integrity. Assesses pipe stresses, structural performance, failure probabilities, and overall system robustness.

EPANET / WNTR Simulations

Full support for all foundational EPANET and WNTR simulations — steady-state, extended-period, pressure-driven demand, and water quality — within a unified interface.

Water Quality & Incident Tracing

Advanced animations of contaminant propagation, transport, and persistence. Trace incidents throughout the network to quantify impacts and perform scenario-based risk investigations.

Scenario Testing

Simulate network modifications, operational interventions, or emergency responses in a risk-free digital environment before committing to physical changes.

Climate & Demand Adaptation

Integrate historical or forecasted climate data to assess impacts on water availability, demand patterns, and long-term network performance under changing environmental conditions.

Criticality Assessment

Identify vulnerable components, assess system robustness under various failure scenarios, and guide capital improvement decisions with quantified risk analysis.

Failure Modeling

Model extreme events — pipe bursts, leaks, contamination incidents — to develop and refine mitigation strategies with quantified impact assessments.

Advanced Visualization

Comprehensive 2D and 3D graphics, GIS-integrated visualizations, interactive dashboards, structured tables, and dynamic 2D/3D animations for detailed network parameter exploration.

Automated Reporting

Network-wide reports with integrated graphics, structured tables, analytical summaries, and analysis-specific content assembled automatically — reducing manual documentation effort.

Flexible Export

Extensive export compatibility enabling datasets, models, visualizations, and reports to be saved in multiple standardized file formats for interoperability with external tools.

Module-Specific Reports

Many analytical modules include dedicated reporting features supporting scenario comparisons, automated insights, and tailored outputs for operational or planning purposes.

About the Creator

Prince K. Munsaka
Prince K. Munsaka
Lead Developer · Civil & Water Engineering Specialist

AquaStream360 was conceived and developed by Prince K. Munsaka at the National University of Science and Technology (NUST) in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.

It began as an academic project in 2024, originating from challenges observed during an industrial attachment in Mutare (2023). At the time, reliance on traditional tools presented significant challenges due to data gaps, labor-intensive processes, and the need for proficiency in numerous disconnected technologies. AquaStream360 was used in 2024 to generate real-world models—completing in seconds tasks that previously took months to complete and were prone to human error. Development has continued uninterrupted, and the goal remains to provide the analytical depth, breadth, and automation that water professionals require, without the complexity of fragmented software.
