BOSS StormNET Approved in Delaware

January 18, 2008, Madison, Wisconsin – The Delaware Division of Soil and Water Conservation has accepted StormNET by BOSS International for use in performing stormwater management calculations in accordance with the State of Delaware’s Sediment and Stormwater Regulations.

“We are pleased that StormNET has been accepted by the State of Delaware and that it easily passed their NRCS TR-20 benchmark test,” said Chris Maeder, Senior Technical Engineer for BOSS International. Maeder adds, “This approval means that a client can use StormNET for stormwater projects in Delaware with the confidence that their designs will be accepted by state agencies.”

Jim Petranek, Senior Account Manager for BOSS International said, “We initially sought approval for StormNET based upon the request of a potential client. We’re all excited about being placed upon the state’s list of approved hydrology models.”

Before being accepted, the results from StormNET had to match a test case provided by the Division of Soil and Water Conservation. “Our software contains multiple computational engines including the NRCS TR-20 methodology. This means that matching the benchmark case within a fraction of a percent wasn’t an issue for StormNET,” said Maeder. “Our software performs the same calculations as the NRCS TR-20 model, but our enhanced interface drastically reduces the time needed for model development.”

This Month's Burning Issue...
Each month we select a hot topic and a leading figure in the industry to write about it.
This month's burning issue:

What message are we sending to senior level decision makers about the importance and value of Spatial Data Infrastructure - SDI - if we keep misrepresenting what SDI is or is all about?

In previous editorials in this magazine I have touched on various SDI issues, especially now that the pan-European SDI has achieved a legally mandated status within the European Union's 27 Member States. Yet I fear that the Geographic Information community - or communities, for there are many - continue to… More…
