MODEL-BASED SELECTION OF SOIL MOISTURE MEASUREMENT POINTS FOR CALIBRATION OF URBAN DRAINAGE MODELS Luleå University of Technology, Sweden The increasing presence of nature-based solutions within urban catchments have revealed the necessity of properly addressing uncertainties associated with green areas while calibrating drainage models, even including new types of measurements. Soil moisture data have the potential to complement or substitute flow rate measurements in this process. However, the selection of sensor locations is important to ensure that data are reliable and useful for model calibration and the efficient usage of resources during the installation and data collection phase. In this paper, a model-based approach is used to identify locations to collect soil moisture data for the calibration of a suburban drainage model. Coupled with physical observations, the model can be successfully employed to select green areas within the urban catchment that are most suitable for placing sensors. | |
