Description
Real-time monitoring of rainfall through rain gauges enables operations personnel to be alerted about potential flooding or sewer overflow situations. By closely tracking and evaluating precipitation levels at various sites, it becomes possible to estimate rainfall in areas that are not directly monitored, a method known as the “Distributed Rainfall Modelling Technique” (DRMT). The integration of rainfall radar data with readings from rain gauges facilitates the creation of enhanced rainfall coverage maps. Furthermore, examining historical rainfall data helps in constructing rainfall intensity-duration curves, which can be compared to the design intensity-duration-frequency curves of the region, aiding in the identification of return periods for recorded events through forensic analysis. In addition, new intensity-duration-frequency curves can be generated to inform the design of drainage infrastructure, including sewers, channels, and storage facilities. Continuous flow monitoring, coupled with data analysis, contributes to the development of rainfall versus stormwater runoff response curves, which are essential for calibrating drainage system models effectively. This comprehensive approach ensures that urban planning and flood management strategies are well-informed and responsive to actual conditions.
Description
During difficult economic periods, funding for infrastructure initiatives is often limited. OpenFlows StormCAD empowers professionals involved in storm sewer project development to maximize their efficiency. This software offers advanced capabilities for roadway and site designers, stormwater master planners, and land developers, enabling them to achieve superior designs while keeping expenditures low. It allows users to load models with wet weather runoff flows sourced from Hydro-35 data or Intensity-Duration-Frequency rainfall events. The Rational Method is utilized to calculate runoff flows, providing insights into how much stormwater runoff will reach an inlet compared to how much will flow downstream in a gutter or pond on the roadway. Additionally, it enables users to rapidly verify that the flow spread in a gutter stays within acceptable design parameters. By employing these tools, professionals can navigate project challenges more effectively and deliver optimal results despite budget constraints.
