Project Description
 

Water & Earth Technologies, Inc. (WET) assisted Ford Consulting Engineers of Sacramento with the development of the Fort Collins Real-time Flood Inundation Model (RTFIM).  The RTFIM integrates watershed models (SWMM) and channel models (HEC-2 and HEC-RAS) developed for drainage studies in Fort Collins, real-time data collected by the City's ALERT system, topographic data in GIS format, and aerial photographs and other GIS coverages that show vulnerable property and people. The result is a system capable of forecasting future stage and generating and displaying maps of potentially inundated areas.
