Abstract

A mobile system and method for designing a stormwater management system using green infrastructure is described. The mobile system and method is used to (1) identify a location and quantity of stormwater runoff generated on an existing property; (2) provide a user with an optimum size and location for a rain catchment tank, rain garden, or other green infrastructure system for retaining or otherwise managing such stormwater runoff on the existing property; and (3) quantify stormwater runoff reduction potential based upon the optimized size and location of the green infrastructure. The mobile system and method utilize a mobile device, such as a tablet or smartphone, and includes aspects of data aggregation, visualization, compilation and sorting of information that can be viewed as a list, a chart, a map view, and the like, for administrative purposes, such as obtaining utility rebates or fee credits, or other green infrastructure asset management.
