October 31st, 2021 - Further Analysis

After gathering further data from the second site visit, the group was able to perform an analysis of the area within the ARC-GIS software. The results produced from ARC-GIS for values such as the longest hydraulic length, average watershed slope, and average curve number all were consistent with those the group had found when first performing hand-calculations. These findings were helpful in aiding the group's direction when exploring possible alternative designs for the Alternative Design Presentation on October 20th, 2021. We decided the best possible solutions that promise the best results include a redesign of the weir spillway, a redesign of a basin on the Canoe Brook Golf Course, or a redesign of the culvert located under the Canoe Brook Parkway. The group looks to narrow down which one of these alternative designs, or a combination thereof, would best suit the project as progress continues to be made.
