Kalypso Planer Client

Service: Development of a decision support system as a planning tool for city planners in the context of urban flood management
Duration: since 2008
Technology: KalypsoBASE, OGC-Standards (GML, WMS, WFS), XPlan (www.xplanung.de)

The Kalypso Planer Client is designed to support city planners in deriving strategic decisions while carrying out blueprint planning work. The tool allows for comparing different planning variants, it determines and evaluates the effects of planning variants on flood runoff and flood retention and aims at drawing closer attention of planners to potential flood risks. Being a tool for urban flood management it allows for optimizing flood relevant issues in terms of preventive flood control measures in the context of city planning.

The Kalypso Planer Client allows for designing and evaluating measures in terms of a central rainfall runoff management. The following measures have been implemented in the software which may be combined at random in a single project.

Measures

  • unsealing surfaces,
  • green roofs,
  • swale systems,
  • nfiltration swale systems and
  • cisterns and small retention basins.

The Kalypso Planer Client comprises functions for

  • calculating flood risk statistics,
  • determining inundation areas,
  • determining damage potentials as well as cost-benefit ratios of measures and
  • documenting projects in a report on the basis of a built-in reporting tool.

The Kalypso Planer Client

  • is based on OGC standards (GML, WebMapService, WebFeatureService),
  • can be deployed in multi-tier architectures (Client-Server Application, Web Application) and
  • allows for dealing with model sequences via predefined process chains (Webprocessing Server).
