Rain is forecast – how will each basin respond?

Infiltration and inflow are usually quantified after the fact.

Once flows have peaked, treatment capacity has been absorbed, and the overflow risk has either passed or materialised. For wastewater operators, the more useful question is what the next storm will do to each basin, while there is still time to prepare.
Baseform continuously detects and quantifies I&I events, and forecasts Rainfall Dependent Inflow (RDI) and each basin’s response to precipitation. Rainfall forecasts become an operational outlook – where flows are likely to rise, and by how much – supporting sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) prevention before conditions develop rather than after. I&I reporting is automated too, so the record is complete and ready whenever regulators or planning teams ask for it.
