I am using the Load Builder and the Proportional Distribution by Area Method to compute the load from GIS Data. I have the Theissen Polygons created from a districts layer that have the flow data as well. Iam using the same layer to compute the flow. The problem is that the total flow calculated based on the Load Builder exceeds the total flow in the GIS layer itself calculated manually.
I have checked the coverage of the Theisen polygon; it is overlapping exactly with the flow layer. Any justification for this ?
Yes Please. I am talking about Watergems
Hello Farah,
You may want to add the shapefiles and Thiessen Polygons as background layers. It is typical that there is an overlap between the shapefiles, as seen here:
If that is not the case more information may be needed, including copies of the files you are using. More information on LoadBuilder, including the Proportional Distribution by Area method, can be found here: How do each of the LoadBuilder methods work?
