EcoLive Water Intelligence Tool
EcoLive Urban Flooding Simulator
See how changing surface composition changes runoff. More metal and concrete means less soil to absorb rain, higher runoff and greater pressure on drains.
Simulation Controls
Represents rainfall over a minimum assumed urban area of 100 sq.km.

Soil/green area is automatic: 50%. Soil/green runoff coefficient is fixed at 0.20. Retained water means rainfall that does not become runoff.

Moderate runoff
MetalHigh runoff coefficient. Rain moves quickly to drains.
ConcreteHigh runoff. Needs drains, storage, recharge routing.
Soil / greenLower runoff. Absorbs more water and reduces flooding pressure.
