How to use GIS Gateway in InfoSWMM to Create both Data and Model Results Shapefiles

GIS Gateway - Create Shapefile

From the GIS Gateway, the Build Shapefile tool lets you create a new ESRI® Shapefile from InfoSWMM data. Every attribute can be loaded into the new Shapefile attribute table by using the data associated with each attribute type. The application of the tool can be directed at either a domain or an active network as necessary.

The dialog box looks like this:
