Abstract
GIS in Wastewater Collection System Master PlanningTrack: Water Distribution, Wastewater, and Stormwater
Author(s): Brad Roeth
The paper presents the use of GIS in a wastewater collection system master plan. The master plan evaluates the impact of 50 years of projected growth on the capacity of a collection system serving 140,000 people in eastern Iowa. Land use plans showing development in 25-year increments led to projected wastewater flows. A hydraulic model identified system inadequacies and confirmed the viability of proposed system improvements. The paper considers the incorporation of data from CAD, database, spreadsheet, GIS, and paper sources. It also considers interface of GIS with hydraulic models and presentation of results.
