titleCapture Process:

 

WATER TANK

 

Definition: A retaining structure designed to hold water, constructed either at surface level or sub surface level. Generally located in an elevated position to secure pressure for onward supply to a water distribution network.

 

Alternate Terms: Reservoir

 

  • Capture as a 2D polygon if feature is rectangular in shape.

  • Capture as a 2D circle if feature is circular in shape.

  • The general outline is plotted from orthorectified imagery

  • If the feature is captured as a circle, convert the circle to a polygon. Select the feature, hit on the Generalize command in ARC. In the Maximum allowable offset: dialog box, type in the range of 0.25 to 0.5

  •  The Locations can be obtained from the cadastre.

  •  Locations can be obtained from other datasets, existing mapping, address details, Local Government websites, or other source material.

 

 

WATER TOWER

 

Definition: A tower generally constructed of steel supporting a water tank designed to hold drinking water, thus providing pressure for the onward supply to a water distribution network.

 

Alternate Terms:

 

 

  •  Capture as a 2D polygon if feature is rectangular in shape, capture the base of the tower

  •  Capture as a 2D circle if feature is circular in shape, capture the base of the tower.

  •  Minimum capture size is a diameter of 15 metres, if required exaggerate to conform

  • The general outline is plotted from orthorectified imagery

  • If the feature is captured as a circle, convert the circle to a polygon. Select the feature, hit on the Generalize command in ARC. In the Maximum allowable offset: dialog box, type in the range of 0.25 to 0.5

  •  The Locations can be obtained from the cadastre.

  • Locations can be obtained from other datasets, existing mapping, address details, Local Government websites, or other source material.
