The document describes plans to visualize a rain garden being installed at a property in Roseville, Minnesota. It provides context about the city's rain garden program and watershed. It outlines the methods to be used, including surveying the site, modeling water flow, and creating maps and animations to depict the garden over time. The goal is to portray the project from inception through construction and beyond to demonstrate the benefits of rain gardens.
Lifesavers 2011 Traffic Engineering Initiatives In Phoenixktwilcoxon
This is a presentation I developed for and presented at the 2011 Lifesavers Conference in Phoenix. At previous conferences I noticed that there was very little local information given so I proposed a session on traffic engineering practices in Arizona. Organizers agreed and Richard Nassi from Tucson and I both gave presentations on what we were doing for our communities. There were between 40-50 people in the audience.

Kevin Byrne’s Study: Visualizing a New Rain Garden via Geodesy and Animation, 2009
1. Visualizing a New Rain Garden
via Geodesy and Animation in
Week 7 of Advanced Modeling at
St. Mary U. under Mr. John Ebert
__________________________________________

October 20, 2009
2. Goal
To visualize rain garden planning along with an early
phase of installation in the Midland Hills neighborhood of
Roseville, MN. (Surveying then geovisualizing the front
yard site of one parcel prior to construction can serve as
a dramatic before/after portrayal from garden inception
to summer 2010 and beyond.)

5. Context
• The City of Roseville (MN) launched a rain garden program in 2008
with the purpose of mitigating substandard drainage in its Midland
Hills neighborhood located in the southwest quadrant of the city.
• Cost of full sewer pipe replacement was estimated at $1 million.
• City Council instead funded the subsidy of rain gardens atop 15 of
its 130 parcels in order to greatly improve infiltration of runoff.
• All residents were volunteers and the project was funded by sewer
fees collected annually by the city from all of Roseville’s residents.
• Roseville’s Department of Engineering and City Council hope the
savings will be half the pipe replacement total.

11. Method
1. Gather .shp assets in order to geovisualize context, with initial foci: minor-,
subwater- and sewer-sheds.
2. Do site visits to exemplary Roseville and Arden Hills’ rain gardens.
3. Do a complete and accurate 2155 parcel geodesy: survey streetside of
the 2155 parcel with SMU’s Total Station and rec. grade Garmin GPS.
4. Create a custom .xls table showing feature numbers, HR, HD, VD, and
elevation attributes, then do spatial-join. Compare this with Garmin GPS.
5. Layer all files in ArcMap (.mxd) and ArcScene (.sxd) then iteratively refine
using Spatial Analyst and 3D Analyst extensions. Ponder flood factors.
6. Sequence multiple maps and compare with landscape architect’s plan.
7. Animate with ArcScene, export to video; photodocument the construction.

46. What I learned
• Look and feel of a dozen rain gardens in two northern
suburban communities
• Specific criteria for rain garden planning and architecture
• Slope derivation from a DEM applied to my immediate
neighborhood (as opposed to someone else’s!)
• Landscape architecture of one Roseville parcel (2155 Draper)
• Animating in ArcScene via keyframing and scene-managing
• “Chats” are important with rg workers and it’s fun to do photo-
documentation “in the trenches” of garden installation at 2155
47. What’s still left to acknowledge and pursue
• It’s complicated
• Get the lead engineer’s (consultant hired by Roseville)
number into your cell phone – so you can stay on her/him!
• The onsite job manager is different than the lead engineer,
talk to her/him, give her/him and crew early Halloween treats!
• ArcScene’s animation menus and routines have some bugs
• ESRI’s online course titled Learning ArcGIS 3D Analyst isn’t
too expensive (approx. $100) and well worth the expense
48. Software and Researched Assets
• ESRI ArcGIS (ArcMap and ArcScene)
• ESRI extensions
o Spatial Analyst
o 3D Analyst
• SMU’s Total Station along with Garmin recreation-grade GPS
• Google Earth Pro versions 4.3 and 5.1, PC and Mac
• Shapefile assets from MetCouncil and DataDeli
• ESRI’s online course titled Learning ArcGIS 3D Analyst
