What are the Water Overlays

With the Water Overlays the following overlays are meant:

Each of these overlays have some common configuration steps which will be described on this page.

Result types

Each Water Overlay is a grid overlay showing results on the surface (flooding), sub-surface (groundwater), open water and sewer system. The following results are produced:

Result type Unit Description
BASE_GROUNDWATER_DISTANCE m (below surface) Initial groundwater level relative to the surface level (NL: ontwateringsdiepte).
BASE_TYPES nominal value Division of gridcells in water, land or sewer areas that are connected to the sewer.
EVAPORATED m (mm)¹ Total evaporation over the simulation period
IMPACTED_BUILDINGS nominal value Constructions impacted by flood: the value from the function value indicator is assigned to a building if the water depth at a grid-cell surrounding the building exceeds the overlay attribute value IMPACT_FLOOD_TRESHOLD_M
SEWER_LAST_VALUE m (mm)¹ The amount of water in the sewer storage at the end of simulation
SEWER_MAX_VALUE m (mm)¹ Maximum amount of water in the sewer storage during the simulation
SURFACE_DURATION s (min)¹ The amount of time the water depth in a cell exceeds the value set in the overlay attribute value SHOW_DURATION_FLOOD_LEVEL_M
SURFACE_FLOW m3/m2 Total volume of water passed a grid-cell, scaled by the cell surface (grid cell-size^2)
SURFACE_LAST_VALUE m (min)¹ Water depth at the end of simulation
SURFACE_MAX_VALUE m (min)¹ Maximum water depth during the simulation
UNDERGROUND_FLOW m³/m² Totall infiltration amount from the surface to groundwater
UNDERGROUND_LAST_VALUE m (mm) The amount by which the groundwater table has risen above the initial groundwater level at the end of simulation
UNDERGROUND_MAX_VALUE m (mm) The maximum amount by which the groundwater table has risen above the initial groundwater during the simulation
WATER_STRESS m (mm) The Maximum water depth during the simulation. At water cells only a water depth is shown if the depth exceeds the overlay attribute value ALLOWED_WATER_INCREASE_M

¹ the units between () are as displayed in the 3D client. If exported to GTiff the SI-convention is used: meters (m) and seconds (s).
