SWMM5 - Emoji Code - In the land of urban sustainability, an ancient scroll πŸ“œ named lidproc.c

 In the land of urban sustainability, an ancient scroll πŸ“œ named lidproc.c held the secrets to mastering Low Impact Development (LID) practices. The essence of the scroll can be described as follows:

Chapter of Constants - "The Sacred Thresholds" ⚖️:

  • STOPTOL: A revered boundary, set at 0.00328 ft, representing the integration error tolerance, which in earthly terms, is a mere 1 mm πŸ“.
  • MINFLOW: A hallowed cut-off, a mere whisper of flow at 2.3e-8, equivalent to a gentle rainfall of 0.001 in/hr. It signifies dry, parched conditions 🌡.

Chapter of Enumerations - "The Layers of LID and Their Chronicles" 🌍:

  1. SURF: The surface layer, where water first makes contact, dancing atop the land 🌧️.
  2. SOIL: Deep beneath the surface, the soil layer lies, nourishing life and filtering the waters 🌱.
  3. STOR: The storage layer, a reservoir holding back waters, releasing them only when the time is right 🌊.
  4. PAVE: The crafted pavement layer, man-made yet harmonious with nature πŸ›€️.
  5. DRAIN: The underdrain system, guiding waters, ensuring they follow the righteous path πŸŒ€.

Chapter of LidRptVars - "The Chronicles of LID Metrics" πŸ“Š:

  1. SURF_INFLOW: The tales of waters flowing into the surface layer 🌧️➡️🌍.
  2. TOTAL_EVAP: Chronicles of the waters that ascend, turning into vapor, leaving the land to join the skies ☀️🌫️.
  3. SURF_INFIL: Stories of the waters seeping into the surface, a gentle embrace πŸŒπŸ’§.
  4. PAVE_PERC: Narratives of water passing through the crafted pavements, a symbiotic dance πŸ›€️πŸ’¦.
  5. SOIL_PERC: Ancient tales of water journeying through the soil layer, nurturing life 🌱🌍.
  6. STOR_EXFIL: Legends of waters seeping out from the storage reservoirs, moving beyond boundaries 🌊➡️🌍.
  7. SURF_OUTFLOW: Chronicles of waters departing from the surface layer, journeying forth 🌍➡️🌊.
  8. STOR_DRAIN: Stories of waters guided by the storage layer's drain, ensuring they tread the right path πŸŒ€.
  9. SURF_DEPTH: Depths of waters, ponded on the surface, reflecting the sky above 🌧️🌍.
  10. PAVE_DEPTH: Tales of water depths within the pavements, a testament to man and nature's coexistence πŸ›€️πŸ’§.
  11. SOIL_MOIST: Narratives of the soil's moisture, vital for life's sustenance πŸŒ±πŸ’¦.
  12. STOR_DEPTH: Chronicles of the depths within the storage reservoirs, holding back waters with grace 🌊🌍.
  13. MAX_RPT_VARS: The grand culmination, representing the zenith of all LID metrics 🌟.

And so, with each layer and metric, the essence of sustainable urban practices was captured, ensuring that cities thrived in harmony with nature πŸŒ†πŸŒ±. The end. πŸŽ‰πŸ“–πŸŒ.
