HydroGPT-AI-powered water resources expert

Example

An engineer tasked with creating an Area Drainage Master Plan needs to outline detailed tasks and subtasks. HydroGPT helps by asking clarifying questions about the project location, client, modeling software, and methodologies. It then generates a comprehensive scope of work, detailing each step required to complete the project.

Scenario

An engineering firm is commissioned to develop a drainage plan for a new residential development. HydroGPT assists in drafting a scope of work that includes data collection, hydrologic modeling, and preparation of design and construction plans.

Example

For a floodplain delineation project, an engineer needs to compile a report detailing hydrologic and hydraulic modeling. HydroGPT guides the user through each section, from data development to modeling results, providing explanations for parameters such as Manning’s n-values and hydraulic cross sections.

Scenario

A city is updating its flood maps and requires a detailed report on the hydraulic modeling performed. HydroGPT helps the engineer include sections on subbasin delineations, elevation data sources, land use parameters, and modeling results, ensuring the report is comprehensive and clear.

Example

An engineer needs to analyze an aerial image to identify potential drainage issues and interpret land use types. HydroGPT breaks the image into quadrants and provides a detailed analysis, suggesting typical land use types such as residential, commercial, and open space.

Scenario

During the preliminary design of a stormwater management system, an engineer uses aerial imagery to understand the existing conditions. HydroGPT helps by analyzing the image, identifying areas prone to flooding, and suggesting suitable stormwater management practices.
