Assessment of Stormwater Drainage Network to Mitigate Urban Flooding Using GIS Compatible PCSWMM Model
Urban flooding has caused immense damage to the society. Flooding in urban areas mostly occurs due to increased urbanization, low rate of infiltration, and poor infrastructure for stormwater drainage network. In the present study, PCSWMM model is used for modelling the stormwater drainage network for the southern part of Delhi, the capital city of India, which is developed by Computational Hydraulics International (CHI), Canada, and it is GIS compatible which makes this software more efficient. All the collected field survey details data of the stormwater drains were incorporated in ArcMap 10.2 and then imported in PCSWMM to develop a hydrology-hydraulic model for surface runoff. The simulated results of the model were further calibrated and validated with the flooding locations data obtained from the Delhi Traffic Police Department. The simulated results were closely matching with the observed data and thus, can to use for designing stormwater drainage network.
