Constructing an inventory for fast screening of hydraulic and hydrologic performance of stormwater control measures

Abstract Stormwater control measures (SCMs) are effective and sustainable complementary means of managing stormwater in cities. Unlike underground drainage systems, they require space on the city surface, therefore must be included initial sketches urban planning design. These often made by architects planners, who usually not trained hydrology, simple robust tools to inform their plans with respect management. There may local guidelines for dimensioning SCMs, but applicability is limited regard range methodology behind them oversimplified, including a lack assessment benefits hydrological cycle. We developed estimating multiple performance indicators wide SCMs applied it Danish meteorological conditions. The includes consulting expected end users, configuring an SWMM model each SCM type choosing applicable parameter ranges, running simulations covering space, post-processing results using python PySWMM. outputs can used draw general recommendations regarding application ranges different quickly assess case-specific configurations.
