Abstract
The invention is directed towards decoupling tidal effects from time-series depth measurements. A drainage sensor includes a fluid depth sensor. The drainage sensors are positioned at monitoring points in a drainage system. Stormwater flows into an input of the drainage system. A tidal depth sensor is positioned in a tidal body of water near an output of the drainage system. During period of high tide, tidal water backflows into the output of the drainage system. The decoupling is accomplished by generating a model of tidal backflow patterns based on data from the drainage sensors and the tidal sensor. The model accounts for a lag time between the tidal data measurements and measurements of the drainage sensors. The model is be used to predict the contribution of tidal backflow effects to stormwater data.
