Design possibilities. See the impacts.
A versatile and interactive scenario tool to place and evaluate the impacts of green stormwater infrastructure practices.
About
Imagine collaborating with your design team or engaging with the community to locate measurable changes that will mitigate against extreme weather and enhance climate resiliency! With our GIS-based interactive scenario tool, you can design resilience strategies with a variety of landscape practices on the fly and quantifiably compare expected impacts with real-time dashboards.
Our role
Using a suite of ArcGIS Online technology, Silvernail created an accessible scenario sketch experience that can be adapted to a variety of applications. In this prototype of ScenarioStudio focused on GSI, we set up three scenarios in which users can draw or edit any of four sample practices, along with an as-built scenario for DeJope Residence Hall. Three key performance indicators are calculated – area, rainfall capture, and installation – and added to the dashboards to visualize impacts.
