The purpose of this study was to define the best Geographic Information System (G.I.S.) Software to manage the Storm Water Drainage Facilities for the Utilities Department of the Village of Tequesta, Florida. GeoMedia Professional was chosen, for its convenient user interface and its compatibility with other G.I.S. software such as ArcView or ARC/INFO. The GIS system displays the information in a map with different layers showing features such as drains or sewers. Subsystems were used to...
Show moreThe purpose of this study was to define the best Geographic Information System (G.I.S.) Software to manage the Storm Water Drainage Facilities for the Utilities Department of the Village of Tequesta, Florida. GeoMedia Professional was chosen, for its convenient user interface and its compatibility with other G.I.S. software such as ArcView or ARC/INFO. The GIS system displays the information in a map with different layers showing features such as drains or sewers. Subsystems were used to define the Levels of Standards (LOS) for the drainage system of the village. The data was collected from different sources such as Palm Beach County, or the property appraisers. The features are linked to databases, where the user can interface with the system and analyze the storm water network of the village. In the end, an interactive map was created with all the data, which provided a sufficient management tool for the Utilities Department.

Abstract/Description

The Village of Tequesta typifies an older storm water system. The infrastructure for the system has not kept up with development within the community. The design was for the conditions at the time of initial development. The levels of services provided are pertinent to establishing a direction and long term goals under current conditions. The existing seven and a half miles of conduit was modeled for a 25 year 24 hour storm. The rainfall amount simulated for the Tequesta area is 10.48 inches...
Show moreThe Village of Tequesta typifies an older storm water system. The infrastructure for the system has not kept up with development within the community. The design was for the conditions at the time of initial development. The levels of services provided are pertinent to establishing a direction and long term goals under current conditions. The existing seven and a half miles of conduit was modeled for a 25 year 24 hour storm. The rainfall amount simulated for the Tequesta area is 10.48 inches within a tidal area. The effects of the tide and the conditions of the conduit system lead to a realization that surface drainage is deeply affected by the tidal ranges associated with storm events.
