Civil Storm. Automatic Catchment assignment to the nearest Outflow Element.

Hello,

Is there a way to AUTOMATICALLY assign already existing Catchments to Manholes?

Currently I am working on rain waist water  project that covers entire city of 401 km². So it is a large area. I have a Terrain Model for my surface. I already have Catchments imported to my Civil Storm model via Model Builder. Manholes are imported as well. I need to assign existing Catchments to nearest Manholes AUTOMATICALLY. How do I do that?

Thank You.

  • Hello,

    Automatic assignment of catchment outflow node is something we are looking into for a future release (reference # 308754), but the poly6gon area alone is not enough information to correctly determine the outflow node automatically. If there are multiple catchbasin elements overlapping a catchment polygon, the model terrain would need to be considered as well, to determine the collection point. In the meantime, the catchment delineation tool could be used. This tool creates new catchments assigned to catchbasins, based on the draped terrain.

    See related article: Assigning Catchment Outflow Node and Tc Automatically (in bulk)
