Urban stormwater data management system with applications to south Florida studies

A data management system was developed to store and retrieve urban stormwater data collected from four small urban basins in south Florida. The system is event oriented in that all data from one storm are stored together on the computer file. The data include descriptive information about the storm and data on rainfall, stage, discharge, and water quality. The data management system, composed of about 20 Fortran programs, was developed to store data, retrieve tables for publication, calculate flow discharges and constituent loads, and provide for interfacing with statistical and deterministic model application programs.
