AREA TAKE OFF

(A) SORTING FILES

From the given sub catchment (subctm.tab), create two different files based on the sewer system.
Create a table named V7 which has sub catchments that covers foul, combine and partial combine
system. Then create another table named V8 which has sub catchments that covers surface and partial
surface system.

Now from the given general area separate out the impermeable area using SQL select as follows

Specifying condition that impermeable areas includes Road, Path, Manmade surface and Track. Now
save the query as road_area.

Make the building_area table editable and select all using Query  Select all from building_area, and
convert to regions using Object  convert to regions. Now save the table as building_out_area.
Next to split the building layer according to the sub catchment boundary, make the building_out_area
editable and select all using Query  Select all from building_area and choose objects  set target.
Now open the given sub catchment (subctm.tab) and make it editable and select all. Now make the
building_out_area table editable again and choose Objects  Split. Select Disaggregation method as
Blank and press OK. Now save the resulting table as building_out_area_split.tab and also save as
building_out_area_opencut.dbf. This dbf file will be used for area take off later.

Similar to building area, repeat the process for the road area. Make the road_area table editable and
select all using Query  Select all from road_area, and convert to regions using Object  convert to
regions. Now save the table as road_out_area.

Next to split the road layer according to the sub catchment boundary, make the road_out_area editable
and select all using Query  Select all from road_area and choose Objects  Set target. Now open the
given sub catchment (subctm.tab) and make it editable and select all. Now make the road_out_area
table editable again and choose Objects  Split. Select Disaggregation method as Blank and press OK.
Now save the resulting table as road_out_area_split.tab and also save as road_out_area_opencut.dbf.
This dbf file will be used for area take off later.

(B) UPDATING SYSTEM TYPE IN SUBCATHCMENTS

Update the system type in V7 and V8 tables. This can be done by extracting details from manholes table
(WWNO). Manhole layer have foul, surface and combine together. So first separate out the surface
using Query  SQL Select
Now save the query as WWNO_surface. Similarly separate out foul and combine using Query  SQL
Select
And save the query as WWNO_foulcombine.

Open V7 table to update the system parameter. Also open WWNO_surface and WWNO_foulcombine to
the current mapper. Choose Table  Update column
Manually identify the partial combine and update the same in the table. Once the system type column is
completed, save the copy.

For updating the system type for V8, update the system type column from V7 and then replace foul, F by
surface, S and Partial combine, PC by Partial surface, PS. For the remaining space in the system type,
check manually and update the same. Save the copy once system type updating is done.

Now split V7 based on system type into three files viz. Foul, Combine and Partial combine. This is done
using Query  SQL Select
And save the query as as foul.tab

Similarly perform the same for partial combine and combine as follows and save the query as
partialcombine.tab and combine.tab respectively.
In the same way separate out the surface and partial surface from V8 using Query  SQL Select and
save the query as surface.tab and partialsurface.tab respectively.

(C) UPDATION OF AREA:

System type A1 A2 A3

Foul - - -

Combine Yes Yes Yes

Partial combine - Yes Yes

Surface Yes Yes Yes

Partial surface Yes - -

A1  Contribution from roads

A2  Contribution from roofs

A3  Contribution from permeable area (Total area – A1 – A2)

1. For partial surface, open partialsurface.tab and update column Area1 using Table  Update
column

And save the copy as surface.tab.

2. For partial combine, open partialcombine.tab and update the column Area2 as follows

To update Area3 (i.e Area3 = Total area – Area1 – Area2), Area1 column is required. So update
Area1 first as follows and then update Area3.
Now make Area1 column to zero as shown below and save the copy as partialcombine.tab
 3. For surface, proceed the same way as mentioned above and update the columns Area1 and
Area2 using road_out_area_opencut.dbf and building_out_area_opencut.dbf respectively.
Area3 is updated as (Total area – Area1 – Area2). Now save the copy as surface.tab

4. For combine, proceed in the same way as mentioned above and update the columns Area1 and
Area2 using road_out_area_opencut.dbf and building_out_area_opencut.dbf respectively.
Area3 is updated as (Total area – Area1 – Area2). Now save the copy as combine.tab
5. For foul, all Area1, Area2 and Area3 are zero and hence no updation is required.

Once area updation is done, combine the surface.tab and partialsurface.tab using Table  Append rows
to table and save the file as V88.tab

Similarly combine foul.tab, combine.tab and partialcombine.tab using Table  Append rows to table
and save the file as V77.tab
 (D) SYSTEM TYPE UPDATION IN ROAD LAYER AND BUILDING LAYER

Now to update the system type in road_out_area_opencut.dbf, open combine.tab, surface.tab and
partialsurface.tab

Make road_out_area_opencut.dbf editable and add a column for system type using

Table  Maintenance  Table structure, then click on Add Field and name it as System_Type and press
OK.

Again open the file road_out_area_opencut.dbf and make it editable and then choose Query  SQL
Select,
The following query result will be displayed
and now using this query update the road_out_area_opencut.dbf using Table  Update column
Similarly update the system type in road_out_area_opencut.dbf for surface and partial surface using
surface.tab and partialsurface.tab and save the file.

Now to update the system type in building_out_area_opencut.dbf, open partialcombine.tab, surface.tab

Make building_out_area_opencut.dbf editable and add a column for system type using

Table  Maintenance  Table structure, then click on Add Field and name it as System_Type and press
OK.
Again open the file building_out_area_opencut.dbf and make it editable and then choose Query  SQL
Select,
The following query result will be displayed
and now using this query update the building_out_area_opencut.dbf using Table  Update column
Similarly update the system type in building_out_area_opencut.dbf for surface and combine using
surface.tab and combine.tab and save the file.

(E) COLOUR CODING FOR ROAD LAYER AND BUILDING LAYER

The updated system type in the building_out_area_opencut.dbf and road_out_area_opencut.dbf can be

For colour coding,

1. First select surface (S), from building_out_area_opencut.dbf using Query  SQL Select
Now choose Options  Region style and change the colour and press OK.

Similarly change the colour for combine and partial combine and then save the copy as
building_out_area_opencut.dbf

2. Similarly specify the colour for surface, combine and partial surface in
road_out_area_opencut.dbf and save the file.

Once colour coding is done the map appears as follows

Road layer with colour coded
