FAQ

Why does water puddle up in any particular location?

Water is affected in subtle and less subtle ways by a large number of factors: the slope of the terrain, the roughness of the ground, the amount of water and the direction it moves in, just to name a few. It's difficult to provide a single answer to intuitively explain all phenomenona you may see in regards to water flow and retention. What does help is to look for signs that water is flowing towards or away from any place you wish to inspect more closely, and to take into account continued precipitation, evaporation, and infiltration (although infiltration is explicitly disabled for this demo). More information on water flow:

• Surface model (Water Overlay)
• Elevation model (Water Overlay)
• Sewer model (Water Overlay)

• Water balance
• Direction of flow for water falling on top of buildings
